There is probably part of objcopy that isn't properly converting between
bytes and octets. objdump is the only program in binutils (other than
gas and ld) that got extensive testing for octets/bytes conversions.
The resulting object file should not wind up being 4 times larger; in
essence, you should have a section with the same contents as the binary
file.
