No way. EF_ has already other definitions:

#define EF_SPARCV9_MM 3
#define EF_SPARCV9_TSO 0
#define EF_SPARCV9_PSO 1
#define EF_SPARCV9_RMO 2
#define EF_SPARC_EXT_MASK 0xFFFF00
#define EF_SPARC_SUN_US1 0x000200
#define EF_SPARC_HAL_R1 0x000400

#define EF_MIPS_NOREORDER 1 /* A .noreorder directive was used */
#define EF_MIPS_PIC 2 /* Contains PIC code */
#define EF_MIPS_CPIC 4 /* Uses PIC calling sequence */
#define EF_MIPS_ARCH 0xf0000000 /* MIPS architecture level */

#define EF_ALPHA_32BIT 1 /* All addresses are below 2GB */

Cheers,
Jakub
