I'm not that convinced that this incompatibility is unacceptable. If
this ELF-thing is being worked on it will be for DJGPP-v3 I guess, and
considering the incompatibilities between v1 and v2 this
incompatibility might be justified. Changing "every DJGPP program that
contains external assembler files" will then be necessary of course.
Just my thoughts.
