[Bug 2039149] [NEW] readelf riscv unknown

[Nico Verrijdt]

Public bug reported:

1)
Description:	Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
Release:	22.04

2)
binutils:
  Installed: 2.38-4ubuntu2.3
  Candidate: 2.38-4ubuntu2.3
  Version table:
 *** 2.38-4ubuntu2.3 500
        500 http://be.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates/main amd64 Packages

3)
I'm hand assembling an ELF file and the readelf utility in the binutils package doesn't recognize riscv which is the e_machine 243. LoongArch or 258 and x86 or 3 are recognized, for example. But not riscv.

4)
Readelf states that 243 is an unknown e_machine.
