Now I realize my mistake, sorry for the noise :/ To not make this thread completely useless: I find /usr/share/misc/file/magic very useful to get machine patterns (as detected by "file"). Search there for "magic for ELF executables" and you will find a fairly complete list of machine magic numbers.
