Indeed, but that also means it should have a standard place for client
programs to get it from, and that place should probably be
<elfdefinitions.h> rather than <sys/elfdefinitions.h>, especially if
anything's already using the former name.
That doesn't mean it can't _live_ in sys/; installing a symlink like
the one for stdbool.h is a reasonable proposition.
(sometime when we finally move away from CVS the kernel/libc include
sharing will get rationalized...)
