Yes, they would be. But... eu-dwarflint really needs a bit of help.
It is only available on a branch:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/dwarflint
No other code is written in C++. To get it integrated into master it
would need someone with some knowledge of C++ and what good interfaces
are that are easy to keep API compatible in the long run. Or it would
need someone with some build/auto* knowledge to get it to build
completely on the build of dwarflint itself can easily be disabled.

Cheers,

Mark
