Nothing like this can be described by ELF in the moment.

Well, then first change the BFD ELF backend.  It must emit the
information based on a flag ld gets.  The rest is then glibc work.
The only reason I haven't implemeted it so far is that I tried to
avoid the BFD work.  If you do it (and get the patch approved by rth)
then I'll add the glibc stuff quickly.
