I would prefer not to do a binary build at

Installing binutils can break the existing toolchain. Installing
objconv should not.
It's a good idea

Hi,
You could also check out my new object format at
http://github.com/bean123/grub, lib branch. It supports conversion of
pe/elf/mach-o object file to a grub specific format, so that you can
use native build tool in Linux/OSX/Windows, no need for linker and
converter. It also reduce compile time

If you see pe2elf as being too much of a burden we may switch to
objconv: http://www.agner.org/optimize/. It's already used in
conjunction with Apple Mach-O toolchain. It's not a GNU project but is
licensed under GPL.
Thanks for the hint, I will try objco

which is available on most distributions).
