But that looks like a bandaid :-\
The comment I made in f785f2357673d520a0b7b468973cdd197f336494 was not
clear enough, now I'm the one trying to figure out why I did that... Duh
:-\
I.e. if:
"HAVE_ELF_GETPHDRNUM_SUPPORT is false" we shouldn't have any prototype
for that elf_getphdrnum function, i.e. the fact that it is in libelf.h
should mean that it is present, how come the feature test for it failed,
i.e. HAVE_ELF_GETPHDRNUM_SUPPORT wasn't defined?
