Subject:	PE executable format

Has anybody thought about switching the output format to PE?

The way I see it, there are the following advantages:
-DLLs and shared libraries.
-Embeded stub.
-Lots of third party utilities.
-Win32 or mixed win32/dos executables (with the appropriate libraries).

The main disadvantage I see is that a new loader is required.

Any comments?
