Also it's not clear there are any active patch reviewers any more, at 
least based on my experience with AArch64 support fixes (sent to Mark in 
May 2020; the yocto@yoctoproject.org mailing list rejects email from 
non-subscribers, or did at that time; see https://github.com/jsm28/prelink 
branch cross_prelink_aarch64_fixes for a git tree with those fixes based 
on a merge of the cross_prelink branch into cross_prelink_aarch64).
