No I only considered the GNU tools.  I will try to create a test and
see what happens, I may revise, or drop this patch from the series
then.

Out of interest, how do you tell if an ELF is ARC700 / ARCEM / etc
when it is compiled with the official tools if not by using the
e_flags?  Is there some other field that should be used?

Thanks,
Andrew
