I think that the error message ought to be more helpful here. Something
along the lines of:
"BFD library does not know how to handle the allocated, application
specific section %s".
Also, it may be possible for a particular backend to handle such a
section, so we ought to give elf_backend_section_from_shdr() a chance to
process it, don't you think ?
Cheers
Nick
