Hi!

Musl currently doesn't support the FNM_EXTMATCH extension to fnmatch(),
leading most musl-based distros to patch the elfutils build to define
FNM_EXTMATCH to 0.

Do elfutils program actually depend on the extra functionality enabled by
FNM_EXTMATCH? Is changing the flag to have no effect a "bug"?

Thanks,
Érico
