Wow thanks. All changes look correct. I wouldn't have bothered with the
ChangeLog entry updates. But given you already did the work lets just
include them. All 12 patches pushed.

I saw you also fixed the spelling issues in elf.h. I'll sync it from
glibc again and add support for SHF_GNU_RETAIN.

Cheers,

Mark
