Re: pe targets

   It turns out that the non-bfd assmebler fails to set file and section
   attributes properly for pe, which cause the failures.  The assembler 
   also sets the object timestamp, which is another reason the simple objcopy
   test fails.  Rather than someone wasting time fixing these problems, is
   there any good reason to continue using the non-bfd assembler for pe?

No, there is no good reason.  We should handle PE the same as cygwin.
