GCC doesn't generate images in ARM executable format (AXF), although it is
very similar to ELF (which is what gcc does generate). There has been some
discussion on this in the past on this list if you want to search at
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/ecos-discuss
Basically, it would require some work to support a new format, or to write
a conversion tool.
