Great, can that be assumed the final magic e_machine number for the ELF
header that eBPF loaders can check for as well then (I do like 0xeb9f ;))?

I'm quite fond of 0xeb9f myself.  ;-)

I have sent a message to both registry@... and registry@....
We'll see if that produces a response within a reasonable time frame.  Failing
that, I'm tempted to just use 0xeb9f forever.

 Yeah, sounds good!

I got a response from registry@... (registery@... forwards to there I believe). It took about 6 months to get a number assigned.
