RFR : 8198275 AIX build broken after latest whitebox.cpp changes

[David Holmes]

I have to wonder why all this Elf file stuff is in shared code in the 
first place. :(

The earlier Elf file stuff in whitebox.cpp is in a #ifdef LINUX guard - 
in fact "utilities/elfFile.hpp" is now included twice in that file! So 
this is getting very messy. I'll file a RFE to have it cleaned up.
