as and ld incompatibility

[Rekha Deshmukh]

Hi!!

I have built gcc-3.0.3, binutils 2.11.2, newlib-1.9.0 successfully for
sh-coff format. 
Now I am building Gcc -3.0.3 with latest binutils from cvs for the same
format. Here the observation is that the object file formats created by
assembler can be recognized by utilities like nm and objdump. But ld is
unable to recognize them. ld exits with Error 
"File format ambigous. Matching formats are coff-shl coff-shl-small."
The object file in question is showing the format as coff-shl. Even then
ld is unable to recognize the format.
I tried to compile the small test program.
main()
{ test();}
test()
{int i=0;}
It gives the same error. 

Please guide me on this. 

Thanks & Regards
