Apologies for the slow response. I looked at it before, but didn't
understand what was going wrong.  But I now believe this is actually
an elfutils libelf issue:
https://sourceware.org/ml/elfutils-devel/2019-q2/msg00077.html

Could you try that out and see if it resolves the issue for you?
(The actual patch is just 3 lines, but there is also a larger testcase
added to make sure the issue was really resolved.)

Thanks,

Mark
