20/// declaration may have.  Visibility determines how a declaration
21/// interacts with the dynamic linker.  It may also affect whether the
22/// symbol can be found by runtime symbol lookup APIs.
23///
24/// Visibility is not described in any language standard and
25/// (nonetheless) sometimes has odd behavior.  Not all platforms
26/// support all visibility kinds.
