I think it is important for GNU. As output shows, the `Ndx` column is misplaced. Here I document this behavior.
We might want to fix it. As far I can see we do not have a test that has sh_other > `0xF`
and seems that is why this issue was never noticed. It is only a valid case for MIPS, hence I think it should be here.

For LLVM style perhaps we do not need -`-strict-whitespace`, I've added it just in case and for consistency.
