I just looked up what the exact difference between V8plus and 32-bit
V9 is and it turns out it's not exactly the same [1].

V8plus does not use VIS instructions and also has a different ELF machine
type, namely EM_SPARC32PLUS instead of EM_SPARCV9 if I understand correctly.

So, we should make sure that the above change will not affect the ELF machine
type.
