  Use insight instead.

[*] To a first approximation.  Obviously if you want to spend six months or so
attempting to get to grip with the undocumented internals of CV10 and then write
your own variant of gas that would output that format directly, or write a patched
version of objcopy that could translate, for example, then that would probably
work.  But there'd be a large amount of complicated work and it wouldn't even be
certain if it was possible until you tried it.
