Bug#319620: mklibs fails to ignore a LOCAL UND symbol

[Thiemo Seufer <ths@networkno.de>]

Package: mklibs
Version: 0.1.15
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Recent libnewt has on mips/mipsel the following symbol:

readelf -s -W /lib/libnewt.so.0.51

Symbol table '.dynsym' contains 189 entries:
   Num:    Value  Size Type    Bind   Vis      Ndx Name
    ...
    38: 11000000    20 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT  UND indow
    ...

While its mere existence is admittedly suspicious, it shouldn't be
taken as a symbol which needs to be externally resolved by mklibs.
The attempt to resolve this symbol breaks the debian-installer
build for mips/mipsel.

The appended patch excludes LOCAL UND symbols from the list of
undefined symbols mklibs tries to resolve.
