We've probably had this before:

Timeseal is a non-opensource, freeware program that timestamps
communication to for instance freechess.org so that network delays after
the player has moved a figure don't count against the player's time.

http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/%7Echess/soft/timeseal/ has two gzipped
files, after gunzip, file(1) (on Linux) reports:

timeseal-FreeBSD:     NetBSD/i386 demand paged dynamically linked executable
timeseal-freebsd-new: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged executable

Doesn't loook ELF-ish.
