Interesting, when using COFF I could NOT get gcc 2.7.2.3/binutils 2.8.1 to work with my AMC BDM at all. AMC failed to read the resulting IEE file (from objcopy). I currently build ELF/STABS (with lots of sections), then link to a 3 section ELF/STABS file, use objcopy to convert the program to AOUT, and then use a special program I wrote to convert the STABS info from "STABS in sections" to a.out/STABS (objcopy does not appear to be able to convert the dbg info, just the symbols from ELF/STABS to AOUT/STABS). The "STABS in sections" format is slightly different (for example, relative addresses instead of abs for some dbg info.). > > Apparently ieee 695 is a much of a stardard as RS-232.
