I think there will be breakage, perhaps total incompatibility.
Consider instead creating a special-named section, as proposed
in <URL:http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2002-10/msg00454.html>.

If you follow the binutils list, you should know that H.J.:s
proposal to change ELFOSABI for this purpose is doubtful.
See for example
<URL:http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2002-10/msg00434.html>,
links and follow-ups in/to that message.
