I don't have any personal antipathy against ELF (I must have missed
Joerg's original post - I've only seen references in follow-ups) I
just have an antipathy against:

	1. Adopting new technologies for the apparent sake of it, and
	   especially when they're going to be *really painful* in the
	   transition.

	2. Adopting new technologies before they're ready.  Would anyone
	   mind just a little if we waited for Linux to go to their second
	   tools rev in their position as ELF-leader? :-)
