+    _LIBCPP_INLINE_VISIBILITY explicit logic_error(const char* __msg) : __imp_(__msg) {}

Done.  A new visibility macro is required since we presumably want _LIBCPP_INLINE_VISIBILITY when providing the inline definitions and not otherwise.  I tested that it works without _LIBCPP_INLINE_VISIBILITY, but I would think that we still want it.

Comment at: src/include/refstring.h:69
 
-inline
+_LIBCPP_REFSTRING_INLINE_VISIBILITY
 __libcpp_refstring::__libcpp_refstring(const char* msg) {

I understand why this is necessary now.  When the inline keyword is used, the compiler only generates code for that function if that function is actually used.  Since I removed the definitions of runtime_error etc in stdexcept.cpp, nothing actually uses __libcpp_refstring so the code doesn't get generated.
