The easy solution is to change binutils, keep the double check for
ELFOSABI_LINUX and ELFOSABI_SYSV in the hppa glibc for a while and
nuke it when everybody has updated. The important bit is to not put a
toolchain out there that produces the wrong binaries.
I've used similar tricks on the ia64 in the past.
