One minor suggestion.

Previously, when the code assumes program headers are following immediately
the ELF header, it uses

 elfcorebuf_sz = sizeof(Elf64_Ehdr) + ehdr.e_phnum * sizeof(Elf64_Phdr);

to calculate the size of ELF header and ELF program headers

This patch avoids the assumption, and uses ehdr.e_phoff to get the program
headers' address. But it will read unrelated contents into elfcorebuf if
program headers are not following immediately the ELF header. So could the
code be:

elfcorebuf_sz = sizeof(Elf64_Ehdr) + ehdr.e_phnum * sizeof(Elf64_Phdr);
addr = elfcorehdr_addr + ehdr.e_phoff;
memcpy(elfcorebuf, &ehdr, sizeof(Elf64_Ehdr));
read_from_oldmem(elfcorebuf + sizeof(Elf64_Ehdr), elfcorebuf_sz -
                 sizeof(Elf64_Ehdr), &addr, 0);
(Elf64_Ehdr *)elfcorebuf->e_phoff = sizeof(Elf64_Ehdr);
