Prelinked system is a good test for tools like GDB, elfutils and others they
can properly handle the displacements of sections/segments.

This is something that ELF does not forbid so tools no longer compatible with
non-zero file address base may have problems in future if someone wants to use
them that way for example on some embedded system.

But another opinion can be s/he should fix them her/himself if s/he needs such
a feature.
