for anyone who cares, I found out that it passes an option to the linker
and according to the ld(1) man page, 

       -Bsymbolic
              When creating a shared library, bind references  to
              global  symbols to the definition within the shared
              library, if any.  Normally, it is  possible  for  a
              program linked against a shared library to override
              the definition within the shared library.  This op­
              tion is only meaningful on ELF platforms which sup­
              port shared libraries.

So it should be harmless in this situation.
