It is known:

You'd need to add 'options EXEC_ELF', at least, but that's not
guaranteed to work on a.out (which is the binary format for 1.5.2). Your
best bet, if you have m68k/linux binaries you want to run, is to switch
to ELF/current. ELF isn't even the default binary format on current yet,
so if you're really leery of current, you might want to wait on that.
