For the for the dynamic binding process to find which module a symbol
is defined in the table of contents is used (analogous to the ranlib
structure in an archive) which maps defined external symbols to
modules they are defined in. This exists only in a dynamically linked
shared library file. For executable and object modules the defined
external symbols are sorted by name and is use as the table of
contents.
