Unfortunately, `pkg-config --print-requires-private libdw` does not work 
for the libebl.a after checked on Debian:buster.

   # pkg-config --modversion libdw
   0.176

   # pkg-config --print-requires-private libdw
   zlib
   liblzma

   # pkg-config --libs-only-l libdw
   -ldw -lelf

   # ldd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdw.so
	linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff733e3000)
	libelf.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libelf.so.1 (0x0000702e24ec6000)

I think libdw.pc cannot reflect the required dependencies, we still need 
to use a way liked in this patch (it is a bit ugly :) to link '-lebl'.

Thanks,
