I'm using libelf 0.8.13, which is indeed 10y old, abandoned and rather
suboptimal (elfutils OTOH is nonportable, and I haven't gotten around
yet to fixing its incompatibilities with the musl libc).

I can accept that you might not be interested in fixing issues related
to libelf, but using -Werror is a more general problem which just
happens to be triggered by my particular setup.
