It's probably worthwhile optimizing x86 and x86_64 on ELF, while making
sure the hooks (and documentation) are available if someone wants to
optimize other architectures, assuming there are tricks one can do to
improve performace without loosing sharing.
But of course I realize there is a resource issue.
