This works with GNU binutils as well, at least for unstripped ELF
objects, and the OSX manual page for nm looks like it supports identical
options with identical semantics.  If it works with GNU binutils on
Windows PE objects then I think we'd be set.

It's not a functional problem, since fbOverlayScreenPrivateKeyRec is
static and each instance of the overlay code wants its own private key.
But you are correct that debugging a server with both fb and wfb loaded
would be more difficult due to the name collision.
