 - `elfObjDisasm`
   - Fix wrong capitalization on elf symbol visibility.
   - Fix symbol visibility not being used on some linked elfs.
+- Fix some function pointers not being properly symbolized.
+  - Those function pointers may get wrongly identified as jumptables because the
+    jumptable pattern and the function pointer tail call pattern is similar.
