And yet, BinUtils 2.16.1 doesn't seem to stub the "myfile" object (with the .EXE header) but later BinUtils do. Isn't this a bug? I tried swapping out DJGPP 2.04 with 2.03p2 to see if it was STUBIFY, but nope, seems to (most likely) be a bug in latest BinUtils 2.17 or newer (2.16.1 didn't have this problem although DJGPP ELF's 2.16 does, oddly). Just FYI in case anyone stumbles upon this or knows a quick fix.
