Yep... I was originally thinking we could update those to be lowercase, but 
that's kinda a broader change, and I imagine most llvm developers are used to 
seeing "ELF64-..." and I'm not sure it's worth changing all the tools just so 
that objdump can be more GNU compatible.

I personally wouldn't mind it. If others are in favor of it too, I'm all for it 
and can make the change.
