That Chris Mears was really trying to be helpful, but didn't quite hit
the spot. The output is 10x larger than what we are expecting, however
that would be OK if it did the job.
Flat binary only is what we want, the files can then be linked up later
on another system.
(Subtle differences in object files from elf/a.out systems  are what is
causing the grief. )
