--- Comment #3 from Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com> --- (In reply to Stas Sergeev from comment #2) > Still would you mind clarifying why > "There is just not enough information in the input format to enable a > proper conversion"? Well for example, objcopy has no way of determining whether the input binary contains code, data, or something else. So it is not at all obvious which section(s) should be used to contain the input. Plus there is nothing to indicate if there are any alignment requirements for the input, or symbols that should reference it, or relocations that are needed to update it and so on. > If this is true, then I'll just write > the script.

OK, so yes, there probably is a bug, or at least an invalid assumption, in the code that generates the PE header. But my feeling is that fixing it is a very low priority, at least at the moment.
