It's worth getting this really right during the migration to ELF...
That test doesn't work on pmax systems which have ECOFF-format kernels
(for netbooting) and ELF userland. A `clean' test that asks the kernel
what format(s) it supports would be nice; absent that, testing on
userland binaries as well --say /usr/libexec/ld.elf_so (or maybe
instead?) is safer than relying on the format of the kernel itself.
