What about non-ELF platforms? Will go not be buildable for them?
This is the second ELF-specific object reader library getting dragged into
the compiler build. Maybe we should give some consideration to just merging
the whole of src/ and gcc/ and be done with it, so that all the non-ELF
targets can get BFD support?
