   That's right.  Digital UNIX (a COFF system) has all of these files and
   more.

Actually, Digital Unix is an ECOFF system.  ECOFF stands for extended
COFF, but it is really quite different.

   I think a.out.h is pretty standard.  Possibly we could get by with just
   calling it a.out.h.

I would tend to agree with this.

I also feel that somebody should glance at the emacs sources.
