I've just committed changes to parse ELF files and read the SONAME
directly. The implementation supports both 32-bit and 64-bit ELF files.
I also implemented byte swapping so that MSB files can be read on LSB
host platforms and vice versa.
Shared library ordering should now always use the real soname for shared
libraries on ELF target platforms.
