This variable is used in the rp-pppoe.so plugin. Mklibs cannot know
that this library is only linked against programs defining this
symbol, and complains. You can rename this library not to have a
.so extension so that it does not get checked by mklibs, define a
wwak symbol in this library, or better fix plugins not to use global
variables.
