Ok, so it can only be a matter of the older binutils version implicitly
assuming the output format to be a.out.

Just did another test build, t

Recent versions of binutils dropped support for the a.out and COFF
formats on sparc64 targets. Since the boot loader on sparc64 is
supposed to be an a.out binary and the a.out header entries are
rather simple to calculate in our case, we just write the header
ourselves instead of relying on externa
