Head -352175 added ET_DYN to _kvm_probe_elf_kernel
and ET_DYN is what started this.

As stands dump hangs on the old PowerMac G5s.
So I'm unable to produce such powerpc64 dumps
to see what the libkvm handling it like.

I gather that the main line of development is
on more modern hardware and is not seeing such
problems --so dumps are being used via libkvm
from what I can tell.

It appears that someone with a powerpc64
environment that can dump would have to check
on the status of this. I'm blocked at an
earlier stage.
