It's called `objcopy' and is part of Binutils.  You should already have 
it in your bin subdirectory.

The problem is, the DJGPP port of `objcopy' was built without ELF 
support.  So you will have to get the sources, configure Binutils with 
ELF support (in addition to coff-go32, which is the DJGPP format) and 
rebuild Binutils.  It might be easier to do that on Linux, if you can 
access a Linux box.

Most probably won't.  Don't hold your breath.
