I think we really dont need the tools part only libelf is needed so one way
is to not build everything but just do targetted make targets and avoid
building tools as its happening 

secondly you could try to add --program-prefix="elfutils-" or somesuch
then the linker from elfutils will be called elfutils-ld but I dont know if
it will work because renaming happens during the install phase you have to try it out.
