DESCRIPTION
       The  elf32_checksum()  function	returns	 a simple checksum of selected
       sections of the image identified by elf. The value is typically used as
       the  .dynamic  tag  DT_CHECKSUM,	 recorded  in  dynamic executables and
       shared objects.

       Selected sections of the image are used to calcluate  the  checksum  in
       order that its value is not affected by utilities such as strip(1).

       For the 64−bit class, replace 32 with 64 as appropriate.
