Can anybody tell me where there is any documentation on the format of the .o
files produced by gcc on the Sparc?

I'm writing some classes for dynamic loading on different platforms and I need to
take a list of .o files and load/link them into a system. I can't cheat and use
any Sparc/Unix specific tools, since this has to be cross platform. I have, however,
encapsulated the actual interpretation of the .o files, and in this case I want
to interpret Sparc files.

On a related note, is the format standard COFF? Will it be changing to ELF at some 
point?

Any info appreciated muchly -

Thanks in advance,
