Small patch to fix the problem

The export_symbols variable found in gio/Makefile.am is wrong, causing link errors when cross-compiling on some architectures (blackfin).

gio/Makefile.am
> [...]
> install-def-file:
> uninstall-def-file:
> 
> export_symbols = -export-symbols-regex '^g_.*'
> endif
> [...]

It should be:
> [...]
> install-def-file:
> uninstall-def-file:
> 
> export_symbols = $(LIBTOOL_EXPORT_OPTIONS)
> endif
> [...]


Other Makefile.am are ok:

glib/Makefile.am
> [...]
> install-def-file:
> uninstall-def-file:
> 
> export_symbols = $(LIBTOOL_EXPORT_OPTIONS)
> endif
> [...]

gobject/Makefile.am
> [...]
> install-def-file:
>uninstall-def-file:
> 
> export_symbols = $(LIBTOOL_EXPORT_OPTIONS)
> endif
