I did some additional research while looking into what was necessary for 
writing the backend. Reading through the source of i386msdos.c appears to 
show a write-only backend for 16-bit msdos executables (see also: 
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gas2/1995/msg00095.html)

I guess the best path is to add read support.
