It's not clear to me why we would need to export those symbols.
As far as I know, heaps cannot be removed, and compiling them as module
means that we would be able to remove them.
Now, if we don't expect the users to be compiled as modules, then we
don't need to export these symbols at all.
Am I missing something?
