The company I work for would like to work with ELF/DWARF2 files.
However our user base still uses older a.out. We are looking into using
objcopy on a.out to produce ELF/DWARF2. We don't require perfect
fidelity but we are looking for a strong interim solution. We only need
an i386 solution (a.out-i386 to elf32-i386).
Is anyone out there currently doing a similar extension to the tools?
Is anyone out there interested in receiving our extensions if and when
we produce them?
I welcome helpful comments and suggestions.

It sounds like you would be changing binutils. You might want to send
mail to bfd-gas@cygnus.com when you're done. The maintainers of bfd and
gas (and binutils) might be interested in your changes.
