Well .... I think Mr Stallman would like the title as is.

It'd need to say "GNU/Linux" for that.

No, this is in fact a valid use of Stallman's terminology, since the binaries being referred to are explicitly *Linux* binaries, that is to say, binaries of the Linux kernel itself. GNU/Linux binaries were what I at first thought the article was about, but the article has little to do with non-Linux-kernel stuff (other than things that also pertain to all ELF objects).
