In http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ms809762.aspx I found this :
DWORD SizeOfImage
This appears to be the total size of the portions of the image
that the loader has to worry about. It is the size of the region
starting at the image base up to the end of the last section.
The end of the last section is rounded up to the nearest
multiple of the section alignment.
Could the generated headers be inconsistent ? Is there a way to get a
Microsoft utility (an equivalent of objdump or so) to inspect the
executable created by cegcc ? Or the other way around - inspection with
objdump of the difference between the headers created by Visual Studio
and cegcc.
