hppa is a strange thing. When bootstrapping it, you actually need the
64bit variant. The strange thing is: There is binutils-hppa64-linux-gnu,
but that's really a lie. There is no libc ABI for hppa 64bit.
Consequently, there is no Debian arch "hppa64" (and Guillem refuses to
create it due to the missing ABI). Yet, we have this
binutils-hppa64-linux-gnu and it outputs ELF objects and I need to check
their validity. Is there any sane way to check such an object with
arch-test?

I think most people who got in touch with this agreed that if there
ever is a linux arch with 64bit hppa, it'll be called hppa64.

Anyway, here is an object file.
