Not really for LibGGI or other libraries, as it would require every
application to use elfvector for linking. For sublibs it is not
particularly useful as they only contain one external function which
is referenced at open time.

It looks highly useful for people using LibGGI in embedded
applications or other custom built system, but not really suitable
for common use. I have no objection to including a patch implementing
elfvector support via a configure option though, as long as it's
done in a clean way.
