   as far as I understand, VisualC++ or Intel compiler for Windows
   create objects file (.obj) in a kind of COFF format.
   [file says 80386 COFF executable not stripped - version 25970]

   There is a tool in binutils called windres that is supposed
   to convert to useful linux library formats.

I think you are thinking of objcopy.

windres deals only with Microsoft Windows resource information.
