Good work.  Can you push this on our "mob" branch?

Some questions:
- is the rename from IMAGE_ to PECOFF_ really necessary?
- can you preserve the directory structure?
- can you split the changes into separate commits, say one
  for 16-bit assembly, one for x86_64, and so on. (not a big
  deal but would be nice)

Thanks,
