Hi Dave,

Is this considered a bug, or a design compromise, in objcopy ?
Ie is it something that will get fixed if someone cares enough, or is
it not something that it was ever intended to do (and so a patch would
be rejected) ?

It is a design compromise. Translating relocs is a very difficult task, and often cannot be successfully done at all (by binary utilities that is. Often the only solution is recompilation of the object files with a compiler targeted at the other file format/OS).

Cheers
  Nick
