Around Sept 1999 there was a major set of changes by Donn Terry to PE
in binutils, to support Interix (PE for the NT Posix subsystem).  That
was halted partway through due to Microsoft buying Interix.  PE
remained broken for about a year, during which Cygnus didn't import
anything to their internal repository.  Mumit Khan maintained a
private branch for Cygwin based on just before the Interix patches.

About a year later, Cygnus finally merged binutils to its internal
repository and thus was committed to fixing the PE problem.  I did
that, mostly by reverting key parts of Donn's changes and fixing other
parts.

I'd have to read the PE+ specs before I can answer that.
