I am trying to learn more about compiler development, and thus more
information about ELF files.  I thought that c++ object files were in the
ELF format, generated in cygwin with the c++ compiler, but when I try to
read them, either with readelf, or in debug, they don't appear to be.  Is
there anyway I can generate these files in elf format?  Or am I just doing
something wrong?  Thank you in advance for your time.

PS, the reason I am trying to do this, is because I would like to learn how
to help in this effort.  Thanks.
