well hmm these only partially fix the issue, still trying to figure
out how to compile a shared library
in the testsuite, but if the symbol is a c function, and doesn't match
a objc method,
until a shared library is loaded we get the assertion failure because
they are left unquoted unless they
match a known objective-c symbol, so we'd have to quote all things
which could potentially match objective-c methods,
this increases the scope quite a bit not sure we want to go this direction.....
