A simple testcase for inclusion into tests/run-readelf-A.sh would be
appreciated.
I will add a test.

This approach is not thread-safe. But if we keep the current interface
(which expects it can return a pointer to a non-mutable static string in
value_name) I don't see a good alternative. Given that it is only used
in readelf, which isn't multi-threaded, I think it is fine for now.
Ok. I will drop a note in the code so we don't forget that.
Given that you have made more than 10 commits now we probably should
give you commit access and appoint you sparc maintainer. Do you have a
FAS account? https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts
Yes, I am jemarch there.
