The plugin needs an early exit, not a way to schedule stuff to run at exit.

This should be fixed to be more general.

> 2. It expects elf32ppc support:

>   emulations = fields[2].split()
>     if 'elf32ppc' not in emulations or 'elf_x86_64' not in emulations:

> Even my gold doesn't have elf32ppc support.

This should be moved to a ppc specific subdirectory.
