Apparently it is still SCO (at least it was a year ago):
http://moxielogic.org/blog/elf-machine-number.html
" Just send a nice email requesting the number assignment to
registry@sco.com and they'll increment their most recent number and add
you to the list."

But it might be that it moved to registry@uxsglobal.com. That seems to
be the last address used on the sysv-gabi mailinglist. If that also
doesn't work, then best to ask on the sysv-gabi mailinglist itself
generic-abi@googlegroups.com

Cheers,
