A better question would be what does the following error mean?

crt2.o: file not recognized: File format is ambiguous
crt2.o: matching formats: coff-i386 pe-i386

from

ld -mi386pe --oformat pei-i386 --subsystem console -s crt2.o
<snip(more .o's)> -o file.exe

ld shows the following:
supported emulations: elf_i386_ldso elf_i386 elf_x86_64 i386pe
supported targets: elf32-i386 coff-i386 elf64-x86-64 elf64-little
elf64-big elf32-little elf32-big pe-i386 pei-i386 srec symbolsrec
tekhex binary ihex

TIA,
-James
