With objcopy. After looking 1 minute at the manual page, I think you
need something like:

   objcopy -o srec --srec-forceS3 bla bla.srec

Where bla needs to be something objcopy could recognise. The compiler
usually generates ELF objects and binaries, so that will do. (you might
have to add the relevant cross compiling prefixes to objcopy, like
mips-linux-)
