Summary: Add option for gcc 4 and above, define JNIEXPORT and JNIIMPORT
to visibility=default, add for jio_snprintf and others since
-fvisibility=hidden overrides --version-script definitions.
Performance increases measured by Volker and Tom;
5% (JBB2005) and 2% (JVM98) on Linux/IA64 and 1,5% (JBB2005) and
0,5% (JVM98) on Linux/PPC64
on intel hardware:

Tested with jmap for any serviceability impact, and tested hs_err_file
decoding still works.
Thanks,
