I'm going to post a new patch with a consistency check against <elf.h>.
We could benefit from type information in glibcelf that is currently
missing from <elf.h>, I think, so synthesizing from <elf.h> directly
isn't quite possible.
I'm not sure yet how regular the mappings are, e.g. if we use any of the
*_HP_* constants (specific to HP/UX) for our parisc port. Maybe once
this is sorted out, we can come up with a common ancestor as a data
source.
Thanks,
Florian
