scripts/addToolsVersion: handle elf2flt

The one was missing from the list.

It is very improbable that we ever need it, as elf2flt does no release,
and we always get it from CVS head. But for the sake of consistency, we
just add it.

     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
