Note that elf.h is somewhat special. We import it as-is from glibc and
like to not have divergence if at all possible. So could you try
submitting to glibc upstream first? (libc-alpha@sourceware.org)
They might say they expect your features.h to provide these macros.
But they might also just take the change as is. If not we'll figure
something out for elfutils.

Thanks,

Mark
