For this and possibly for the plan9 support I will except
patches to mkelfImage. As of version 2.0 it has an infrastructure
that allows for adding code for various targets.
And the code is all in C so it is fast.

Basically to load vxworks at 0x8000 you just need an ELF
header that says load me here. And probably a bit
of adapter code that switches from 32bit protected mode
to 64bit protected mode.
