Ah, I must have mistakenly thought that other tools were already using llvm-readelf in cfe. Sorry about this.

This is in fact intended. The interface stubs feature needs to be verified against the actual symbols that are emitted into the elf binary. In the cases where I use llvm-readelf, I am using it to determine if the symbol is visible (to nm for example) but marked hidden in the .o file (but will end up being hidden in when linked).

Currently clang -emit-interface-stubs is not using any elf libraries, but it needs to verify against llvm-nm and/or llvm-readelf in these lit tests to determine if the visibility of the symbols generated in the text stubs is correct.
