This series is an experimental reimplementation of ELF property parsing (see NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0, [1]) for the ELF loader. This is intended for comparison / merging with [2] (or could replace it, if people think this approach is better). This supersedes RFC v1 [3]. For changes see the individual patches.
