This has worked for me:

First extract shr.o from libc.a:
	ar x /lib/libc.a shr.o
	mv shr.o shr.o.orig

Next create an exports file:
	dump -Tv shr.o.orig | awk '$$4 == "EXP" {print $$8}' > libc.exp

now the bind:
   ld -bh:4 -D0 -bnso -H512 -T512 -bM:SRE -o shr.o {your files} shr.o.orig \
   /lib/libs.a -bI:/lib/syscalls.exp -bE:libc.exp -bE:/lib/syscalls.exp

Of course, you can add exports to libc.exp as you so desire.
