We can answer questions about GNU binutils built from the standard
releases.  I don't know what that release is.  I recommend that you
contact the vendor.

I don't know what the problem is.  However, the usual workaround for
this sort of problem is to generate an ELF file, and use objcopy to
convert it to S-records.  That is, generate the default format (don't
pass --oformat to the linker) and then do
    h8300-elf-objcopy -O srec OUTPUT OUTPUT.srec
where OUTPUT is the name of your output file.
