Hallo Pedro,

I tested the testsuites on i386-linux cross and native for binutils, gas, 
and ld. Sorry for, but I have no other architecture available.

Here comes the two first parts of the patch. There will be another three 
for binutils, gas, and ld coming up soon.

Change log modifications for include/coff

data_start member)
                AOUTHDRSZ64:    Set according structure size
                AOUTHDR64:              As typedef of external_aouthdr64 
structure
        * internal.h:   Add relocation identifiers for coff
        * pe.h: Add define IMAGE_FILE_MACHINE_AMD64 the coff signature
                PEPAOUTHDR:             Adjust structure to have proper

detection
        * bfd.c:                        Add for new target "coff-x86-64"
                bfd_get_sign_extend:    Add target vector idents for 
pe-x86-64. and pei-x86-64
        * coff-x86_64.c:        Add new file for x86_64 (AMD64) coff

COFF_WITH_pex64
        * coffcode.h:                   Add for new target machine,

for pex64igen.c
        * pe-x86_64.c:  Add for new target "pe-x86-64"
        * pei-x86_64.c: Add for new target "pei-x86-64"
        * peicode.h:            Adjusts for new targets
                coff_swap_filehdr_out:  set for this target to
