Looks to me like the compiler is generating ELF but the assembler is
expecting COFF. You will need to get them to agree.

In gcc 4 the i386-lynxos target generates ELF. If you need COFF you
will need to undo that. gcc in general does still support COFF.
The change to ELF was made with this patch:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-07/msg00501.html
It is perhaps unfortunate that the patch did not preserve the ability
to configure for older versions of LynxOS. But if you reverse that
patch, you *may* be able to get a working LynxOS COFF compiler. Or
there may be other problems. It's hard to know.
