What version of GNU nm are you using?

    $ nm --version
    GNU nm (GNU Binutils) 2.24

I'm not convinced the insertion of an underscore is nm's doing.

At this point, I'm not sure how to create a better version of this
patch. Are we renaming functions in notmuch-private.h? Should we stick
with objdump or switch to using nm?
