I got to this sooner than expected:

$ cat ssp_test.c
#define  _FORTIFY_SOURCE 1
#include <unistd.h>
void foo (ssize_t (*preadlinkat) (int, char const *, char *, size_t));

void baz ()
{
   foo (readlinkat);
}

$ gcc -c -O1 ssp_test.c

$ objdump -x ssp_test.o | grep readlinkat
   6 .rdata$.refptr.__ssp_protected_readlinkat 00000010 
0000000000000000  0000000000000000  00000180  2**4
[...]
