Hi Nick!

The readelf-output (Version 2.25) of your sample is (showing ARM-Attributes):
  Attribute Section: aeabi
  File Attributes
    Tag_ARM_ISA_use: Yes
    Tag_THUMB_ISA_use: Thumb-1

It contains sub-fields; I.e., it seems, that with binutils mainline these two
default-attributes are emitted (instead of nothing as before for OABI).

No, thanks - it is fixed for future releases. And as I have described in
comment #5, I have a (private) work-around or will discard the
.ARM.attributes-section at link-time (with a linker-script) to make our
post-processing ELF-utilities happy!

BR,
Markus
