Apart from recompiling: No.

There is no automatic solution for this one.

That is possible with an intermediate step. Use the linker to create your main
program. Use some perl magic to retrieve all identifiers from the map file and
generate an asm file with "name := value" pairs. Then assemble and link this
object file to the overlays. As a result, the overlays will use functions in
the main program, if they are already there, and have their own copies of
everything else.
