Assuming runtime, glibc/ld.so, accepts this without EI_OSABI set to
ELFOSABI_LINUX, it seems ok to print it as GNU_IFUNC.

Note that you technically also don't need the elf_getident call
anymore, except as sanity check that the ELF header can be read
properly.

OK, with and without that change.

Cheers,

Sorry, I decided to scratch this as it violates the standard:
