Patch to fix the problem

The libelf file in base fails to perform elf_update when growing the file by
adding new sections, because elf_getdata erroneously checks section boundar=
ies
against the old file size.

This can be fixed by omitting this check when doing elf_update.

The attached patch fixes the problem.
