much better!
for the test in comment 7 now I get
c++ -O0 -shared -fPIC -fvisibility=hidden -o bha.so testICF.cpp 
nm bha.so | c++filt | grep " T "
0000000000000e5c T go()
00000000000069ce T unsigned long const& std::max<unsigned long>(unsigned long
const&, unsigned long const&)
00000000000010b2 T std::__lg(long)
00000000000010d8 T operator new(unsigned long, void*)

puzzled by the visibility of std::max above I modified the original test
further as

cat visTest.cc 
namespace s __attribute__((visibility("default"))) {
  template <class T>
    class vector {
  public:
    vector() { }
  };
  template <class T>
    void foo(T t) {
  }
}

class A {
public:
  A() { }
  s::vector<int> v;
};

s::vector<A> v;

int main() {
  A a;
  s::foo(a);
  s::foo(v);
  s::foo(a.v);

  return 0;
}


and I get default visibility for s::vector<int>, as expected. not necessarily
as wished…
In my opinion this is consistent with spec, expect bug reports though!

 c++ -O0 -shared -fPIC -fvisibility=hidden -o bha.so visTest.cc 
 nm bha.so | c++filt 
0000000000000d77 t __GLOBAL__sub_I_visTest.cc
0000000000000d4c t __static_initialization_and_destruction_0(int, int)
0000000000000d8c t A::A()
0000000000000dba t void s::foo<A>(A)
0000000000000dc0 t void s::foo<s::vector<A> >(s::vector<A>)
0000000000000dc6 T void s::foo<s::vector<int> >(s::vector<int>)
0000000000000db0 t s::vector<A>::vector()
0000000000000da6 T s::vector<int>::vector()
0000000000000d04 t __dyld_func_lookup
0000000000000d0a t _main
0000000000001038 d _v
                 U dyld_stub_binder
0000000000000cf0 t dyld_stub_binding_helper


p.s I verified that if "s" in NOT default visible  vector<int> will become
hidden
