Consider the following two facts: 1. binutils-2.17 removed m68k-coff support, that was 3.5 years ago 2. gcc-4.4's NEWS file lists m68k-coff as unmaintained and scheduled for removal > I'm sure that problem has easy solution, but I'm starting now.

If you absolutely must use coff, it's probably best to use older versions of binutils and gcc from the time when it was still supported. binutils-2.16.1 and gcc-3.4.6 might be a good starting point. You can't expect any upstream support for these old versions, however. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42557
