I just check against 2.20.1.20101209, 2.21.1.20110925, 2.22.0.20120801, 2.23.2.20130919,
and 2.24.0.20140325 'readelf -W -S -d -r' against a x86_64 and PowerPC64 build by generating
the jmprel files and all generate the same output for both archs.

I also check with wrong IFUNC usage code change on both archs to see if the script is now
capable to detect them:

* PowerPC64:

        nop
        cmpldi cr7, r29, 7              /* If s2 is <=7 process

* X86_64:

And both cases all readelf test correctly shows the wrong PLT cases. Ok to commit?
