On some architectures there are no bits left. On others you'd need to go through whomever maintains the relevant psABI to get a bit officially allocated. Really, it is very bad idea to use e_flags for this.
If all you care about is running setuid LISP programs, you'd much better put your energy into fixing the buggy ELF dumper in it.
