Yes, and in fact one release of HJ's binutils recently did exactly this.  But 
we took it out again because the next major release of binutils will have no 
support for arm-linuxaout at all and we didn't want people to get used to 
having it included in ELF toolchains.

If you are using the binutils 2.9.1.x-derived tools you can include support 
for this (or any other target) using something like `--target=arm-linux 
--enable-targets=arm-linuxaout'.  This doesn't buy you a great deal though 
because you still need a separate compiler and life is easier if the compiler 
and the rest of the tools have the same primary target.
