We want things to continue to work on ELF files with e_machine codes for
which we have no ebl port. So if you do that, you need to adapt all the
users so that they do something useful when openbackend fails. It might be
simpler to stick with the generic backend but add an ebl hook for "warning
to user" that readelf et al could use to emit a message when using the
generic backedn.
