I've uploaded it to http://users.ox.ac.uk/~mert0407/coff.c.  Just
compile it as normal; it doesn't need `-ldbg'.  When you run it,
pass it the name of a COFF or EXE file on the command line, and it
will dump the information to stdout.  If you don't pass a filename
it will dump its own information.

It only dumps the symbol table information, not the line numbers,
but the line numbers are fairly easy to work with so you should be
able to add that if you need it.  In case you haven't found it
already, there's a reference to djgpp's COFF format somewhere at
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/.
