It's only planned now because I brought it up.  I think that shooting
down a subthread like this implying I'm getting in the way is kind of
uncalled for, to be honest.  If anything, it should make people wonder
whether a better name for the flag would be SHF_GNU_USED, so that we
don't end up with more than one term for the same thing in the
toolchain.  Though yes, that's minor.

Anyway, please don't let me hold anything up.
