> If djgpp's Binary Format Descriptor is COFF, then what is this Win/PE?

PE is a variant of COFF.  It's similar in format to djgpp's COFF (in
fact, they share many source files in binutils) but it is not
compatible.  The objects are very similar (but not quite), but the
executables are very different.
