I think I figured this out.  According to:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Porting/Conceptual/ 
PortingUnix/compiling/chapter_4_section_7.html

"Important:   Mac OS X does not support the concept of weak linking as  
it is found in systems like Linux. If you override one symbol, you must  
override all of the symbols in that object file."

So overriding read_number_bad_syntax and read_number_junk seems to have  
been a linux-specific capability.

Bummer.
