With ELF extended numbering 16-bit bound is not hard limit any more.

* Because the kernel adds some informative sections to a image of program at
* generating coredump, we need some margin. The number of extra sections is
* 1-3 now and depends on arch. We use "5" as safe margin, here.
+ *
+ * ELF extended numbering allows more then 65535 sections, so 16-bit bound is
+ * not hard limit any more. Although some userspace tools can be surprised by
+ * that.
