along those lines, just run `readelf -d /usr/lib/gcc41/crt1.o` ... that should 
give you a pretty quick answer; just look for any field which comes up 
unrecognized

along these lines, i feel like we could/should improve the error reporting 
here ... "File format not recognized" is pretty generic and cant easily be 
traced back to a resolution of what needs to be changed ...
