Well, after making world and having all /usr/libexec/{elf,aout}, I guess one could make an ELF world in a couple steps, if they're interested:
1. export BINFORMAT=elf and make usr.bin/objformat, and make install it
2. go to lib/, 'echo "BINFORMAT=elf" > /etc/objectformat' and make all the libs, and install them (to /usr/lib? mine installed there, I moved them to /usr/lib/elf, should the elf libs really be there or just /usr/lib?)
3. make the world; it _should_ work now, but I didn't try it
