objcopy with MRI ieee-695 files


Using m68k-coff-objcopy, I'm trying to convert ieee-695 object files built
with the Microtec m68k compiler/linker to coff-m68k object files.  I have
made the necessary modifications to allow m68k-coff-objdump and
m68k-coff-objcopy to recognize the file format and the conversion works for
about 90% files, but I get a file not found error on the input file for the
other 10%.  I have traced through the source code and found that in the
files that fail there are one or more occurrences of zero length sections.
I'm not sure if there is a problem with the Microtec linker in leaving out
these sections or there is a problem with m68k-coff-objcopy in not handling
the zero length sections.

If anyone has any experience in this area, please respond.  I am not part of
this mailing list, so include my email address on your response
(dawnk@micromotion.com).

Thanks,
