https://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2671

--- Comment #1 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@???> ---
There's several issues with the patch as presented:

- The -fvisibility compile flag. Other compilers?
- It uses GCC-specific pragmas. Do other compilers that people use work?
- It removes mention of the traditional local_scan build method from the
makefile.
If the intent is to remove support for that, I don't think it acceptable.
- The conflict with dlopened lookup modules. Possibly manageable via makefile
warning commentary and build-time checks.
- There's at least one global option, local_scan_timeout, which was a safety
feature guarding the traditional local_scan, not longer supported (but with
code still lying around in the source).
- Potential expansion of the test-configurations matrix. Actually, we probably
don't have the manpower, and probably things just won't get tested.
