Comment (by maeder):
Somehow my comment for OS X got lost. The patches are not yet working on
OS X. "nm -V" fails on Mac.
The third word is the size and leading underscores must be ignored. I'll
provide a patch checking for "C" in the second word and extracting the
size from the third word. (For GNU nm the third and last words are
identical.)
