> The math library in AIX specifically, is a static archive. Doing a -lm wont suffice, because when the symbols are looked up using dlsym or accessing native code through Java, it will lead to failures.
> Hence we had to come up with a list of symbols to allow math library symbols to be accesible.
> Also, there are parts of libc library that are static too, and hence those symbols also are present in this list.
> Without this change, the StdLibTest and multiple other tests which make native function calls using FFI, fail with NoSuchElementException.
>
>
> 1. Adding required compiler flags.
> 2. Adding required symbols.
