FWIW I think REDUCE_EXPORTS can just go away. CMake has its own visibility options.

That's the current implementation:

if(REDUCE_EXPORTS)
  set(CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET hidden)
  set(CMAKE_VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN 1)
  try_append_linker_flag("-Wl,--exclude-libs,ALL" TARGET core_base_interface)
endif()

--enable-lcov-branch-coverage has been removed

--enable-lcov-branch-coverage has been removed

Thanks! Adjusted.
