If this Unix machine that the ELF files are generated on is not using an
80x86 architecture, then the object file format makes no difference; the
executable code is completely foreign to your PC and has exactly zero
chance of working.  Different CPUs + different operating systems +
different libraries = completely incompatible code.

The only way to get these object files to work in DJGPP is to find the
source, port it to DOS (sometimes easy, sometimes hard), and rebuild it.
