Works for me on Linux.
Just with that code I get undefined reference to `puts' (puts instead of
printf due to a gcc optimization),
which was solved just by adding -L/usr/lib -lc, and then I needed to add
-dynamic-linker because the default interpreter was the missing
/lib/ld64.so.1 (that's ELF specific, as you're building a PE you don't
need to worry).

It dies by sigkill as soon as i try to run it, though :S
Adding crti.o crtbegin.o crtend.o crtn.o doesn't solve the crashing.

I tried adding a dummy to make an alias, and it worked:
Just create a file link.s with content:
-- begin file --
.global fct1_wrongname
.set fct1_wrongname, fct9
fct1_wrongname:
-- end of file--

And add it to the compilation *before* f1.c:
gcc link.s f1.c -o rename.exe


(there are probably many things wrong with this approach, but it
apparently works)
