Well, I'm not wedded to the trick I used.  In fact, I made provision for
reverting the elfcode.h change without needing to change the testsuite.

Having the name there does have some benefit, for example with these
section syms that some targets emit:

00000000 l    d  *ABS*	00000000 .shstrtab
00000000 l    d  *ABS*	00000000 .symtab
00000000 l    d  *ABS*	00000000 .strtab
