[FFmpeg-cvslog] build: Only enable symbol reduction if the compiler does proper DCE

[Diego Biurrun]

ffmpeg | branch: master | Diego Biurrun <diego at biurrun.de> | Fri May 27 20:14:21 2016 +0200| [b2d5d6a7f20a255a5f3c9bf539cc507afd909ce5] | committer: Diego Biurrun

build: Only enable symbol reduction if the compiler does proper DCE

With compilers that do not support proper dead code elimination, like
Sun C 5.12, linking fails due to missing references to unavailable,
but also unused, symbols.

Bug-Id: 895
