   BTW, I think it is a very good test for the ELF
   support in binutils if you use the binutils to assembler
   and link itself.

These are part of the standard tests of the assembler and linker,
incidentally, for those who are interested in running them.

In gas, do ``make bootstrap''.  CC must run gcc.  This runs a three
stage bootstrap.

In ld, do ``make check''.  You must have DejaGnu installed.  This runs
various tests, including three stage bootstraps using various
different options, and several shared library checks.

I run these tests regularly on ELF, and other, systems.
