Hey guys, Thought you might want to know that this tool builds and seems to work perfectly. Could be helpful for conversion between binary formats though I'm not sure (yet) if it can be used for that purpose. http://sun.hasenbraten.de/vlink/index.php?view=main Thanks to Keith Scroggins for finding this.
If you guys are investigating new binutils and new object file formats, then now is a good time to invest in developing a re-linkable executable file format. ELF may be a good starting point; as noted already you can put whatever sections you want into an ELF file. You could try keeping the ELF .relo section and just append it to the TOS file image, with an appropriate pointer to it in the standard TOS symbol table.
