Late last year there was a discussion in regards STT_IFUNC, and we
thought you'd settled on this name (no _GNU_) and the associated
value of 7.
I guess we jumped the gun. Although we have no immediate plans to
implement support for this, we did reserve the name-space, so that
if nothing else we could identify new objects with this definition:
sys/elf.h:#define STT_IFUNC 7 /* indirect code object (unused) */
I assume we should now remove this dead-wood and reserve the STT_LOOS
value instead.
