Hi Vincent,

  Duh - I wonder why that did not work for me when I tried.

  Anyway I can now reproduce the problem.  It is possible to fix the code in
bfd_elf_m68k_set_target_options to avoid the seg-fault, but I think that this is
the wrong approach.  Essentially the m68k-elf code in the BFD library needs some
special fields in the global info structure and these are only created if the
output format is m68k-elf.  So it is not possible to link m68k-elf binaries and
change the output format at the same time.  (This restriction is common to quite
a few linker targets).  So instead I am proposing the uploaded patch to issue an
error if an attempt is made to link m68k-elf binaries and change the output
format at the same time.  What do you think ?

Cheers
  Nick
