I'm sorry if I offended anyone by converting this port to elf.  Someone
a while back asked if we should wait for the maintainers to submit fixes
for ELF or just do it given the proximity of the 3.0R deadline.  The descision
was to just do it.  I reviewed ports/8012 and found that the fix did not make
the port ELF compliant, so I committed a fix that is inline with the BCP
for porting.
