  Talking on solar about this confirmed my suspicions, the ELF data
can't be wrong, otherwise things won't link properly.  Thus if we were
just to use ELF NEEDED entries, how could the list of reverse runtime
deps be "incorrect" as you imply above?  The only assumption here is
that ELF is supported on that platform/arch.

So in regards to reverse dependency tracking, do you have a
solution/advice or just useless criticism?  Please attempt to be
constructive here.
