In g++ 1.36.1, gnulib3.c defines COFF if i386 is defined. This is
incorrect when using COFF encapsulation on a System V 386 PC. In this
case COFF shouldn't be defined because the GNU linker is being used. I
don't think there's any way to determine whether COFF should be
defined on the basis of predefined symbols; the Makefile has got to
supply the appropriate flags.
