[PATCH] elf: Report property change when merging properties

Hi Guys,

Indeed - this was my motivation for requesting the patch in the first place.

How about rewording the message as:

  Property 0xc00000002 (0x1) found in foo.o but removed from final link because it is not found in bar.o

A little bit more wordy perhaps, but I think that it explains what is going
on in clearer language.

Cheers
