In general I think it's unfixable. Yes, you were able to come
up with something that worked for i386, but not for targets that
require non-trivial bookkeeping during final link -- ia64 and
alpha come to mind here.
Besides, I think such is a waste of time and effort. If you
want S-records, we have this nice objcopy utiltity.
