  Description     : turn arbitrary files into ELF objects for linking into programs

elfrc is a program which can turn arbitrary files into ELF object files which
can then be linked into your program directly and accessed via simple,
user-defined symbol names.

For instance, it's possible to embed even huge (16MB+) files directly into the
executable and then access the data in constant time without making the
compiler or linker eat loads of memory.
