I am still trying to understand exactly what you mean by the above.
Sorry for being dense! can you clarify a bit? As said on IRC, it seems
to me that you want to disable this feature on targets that use non-ELF
object files (which would require some extra code just to make sure we
activate this only if the object file is ELF).  But our discussion on
IRC seems to indicate that you're proposing something else...
