Its ELF all the way, theres no support for any Acorn types. You either link
against an ELF relatives which have been wrapped up by ar.

I've only built a static library with ar so far, so not sure how you produce
a shared library yet.

The ELF GCC 4.1.1 is at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/les.noar/lee/gcc/
if anyone wants to give it a spin.
