I know that, but I was provided with an ugly construction which cannot be
mapped to the language I use.  If I could map it to the language then I
wouldn't need to convert from coff to elf.  I found a set of tools that
convert from coff to elf but the download link is broken (or IE6 is), but
I'll keep checking.


Thanks for the insights,
Chris
