This is the ELF ABI standard-approved way of doing ELF branding:

Section Headers:
[Nr] Name              Type            Addr     Off    Size   ES Flg Lk Inf Al
[ 2] .note.ABI-tag     NOTE            08048110 000110 000018 00   A  0 0   4

with the source of this (for FreeBSD native binaries) being
src/lib/csu/common/crtbrand.c.

See http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/kernel/elf-notes.html for more
