Mac OS X: Work around a subtle bug/strangeness/"feature" in Apple's toolchain
that affects machoInitSymbolsWithoutUnderscore().
(The symbolsWithoutUnderscore symbol must be .globl, otherwise incorrect code
will be generated to refer to it)

This has already been MERGED TO STABLE as part of the previous commit.
