Is there any simple/portable way to automate the name list generation or
at least test that it's correctly done at build time?  It would be nice
to not have to worry about manual updates being needed for every change.

On Solaris, I can get the equivalent output with:

% nm -pg libwfb.so | grep ' fb'
00000000000000218380 T fbTrapezoids
00000000000000219112 T fbTriangles

but I'm not sure that's the best test, and clearly would need portability
help.   wfb seems like a candidate for -export-symbols-regex '^wfb.*' but
then it would be even harder to detect problems.

If nothing else, should there be a comment early on in fb/*.h advising
people when a wfbrename.h entry would be needed?

And presumably because of the crashes this is a 1.11 stable release
candidate as well, right?

BTW, is it a problem that libfb & libwfb each have a local copy of
fbOverlayScreenPrivateKeyRec ?  Or is it required that 
wfbOverlayFinishScreenInit initialize a different private than
fbOverlayFinishScreenInit and fbOverlayScreenPrivateKeyRec should be added
to the rename list to simplify finding the right one when debugging?
