./configure --enable-targets=whatever
The assembler still only targets one arch but the rest of binutils can work 
with multiple formats[*].

Not really. You can try objcopy, but chances are it won't work. ELF and coff 
are sufficiently different I'd be surprised if you can convert between the 
two in any vaguely reliable way.
