I think that is_standard_elf might be a bit pejorative.  Those targets
are conforming to the ELF standard, they are just choosing to use their
own methods for implementing it.  May I instead suggest: "uses_elf_em"
as an alternative, since this seems to capture the reason for
segregating these particular targets.

Cheers
