libelf from binutils ?

Hello,

I'm interested in reusing parts of the sources of some binutils
(particularly objdump). Given that libbfd is available directly from the
binutils source, it's interesting that a corresponding libelf is
missing. Are there any plans for packaging such a library, or should one
go the route of doing vendor imports of the elf includes etc from
binutils and tracking updates to those ?

There seems to be a separate libelf out there
(http://packages.debian.org/testing/libdevel/libelfg0-dev) that is not
coming from binutils sources.

Any insight on this ?

Thanks
Kristis
