In FreeBSD 11 ELF Tool Chain's elfcopy is by default installed as objcopy. The option to switch back to GNU objcopy is available by setting WITHOUT_ELFCOPY_AS_OBJCOPY in make.conf. As part of the plan to remove the outdated in-tree binutils in FreeBSD 12 I intend to remove the WITHOUT_ELFCOPY_AS_OBJCOPY build knob, after FreeBSD 11.0 is released. The patch is available in a Phabricator code review: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D7337
