Searching[0] quickly in the code that is present in the debian archive,
I see that at least lxc has the same function name, but I didn't
encounter collision myself.

Apparently libaudit also has some symbols that are not prefixed
by audit_[1], but these seems a bit less generic than "clear_config()"
