 __weak_alias also in db/mpool/mpool.c.
 
 As far as I know, I came from a bug of __weak_alias on OpenBSD
 (or you could say that the spec of __weak_alias on OpenBSD is
 differ than one on NetBSD).
 
 I think that macros prefixed with "__" are not portable, should not be used in
 applications/libraries, or at least, __NetBSD__ macro should be checked first.
