 It's in my TODO list. Because the present code is very dirty, I hesitate to
take this code into kern/. And, I am not familiar with the specification of
the COFF. Almost work for the COFF was finised except:

    DDB for COFF
    crunchide for COFF (can be substituted by Sakamoto's BFD based crunchide)
    mdsetimage for COFF (can be substituted by Sakamoto's BFD based mdsetimage)

 By the way, what will we have to do though there are many Makefiles which 
to presume to OBJECT_FMT=a.out if OBJECT_FMT!=ELF ?

 And more, NetBSD/sh3 supports both ELF and COFF. We are planning to swith
to ELF because NetBSD/sh3 already runs dynamic linked ELF binary (worked by
Tsubai).
