`.internal NAMES'
=================

   This one of the ELF visibility directives.  The other two are
`.hidden' (Note: `.hidden'.) and `.protected' (Note:
`.protected'.).

   This directive overrides the named symbols default visibility (which
is set by their binding: local, global or weak).  The directive sets
the visibility to `internal' which means that the symbols are
considered to be `hidden' (ie not visible to other components), and
that some extra, processor specific processing must also be performed
upon the  symbols as well.
