(author) Thank you! But this was actually not very difficult. The PE format is well-documented, so I just extracted the code segment addresses, then generated an ELF by emitting code like this with a hacky Perl script:

  .globl main
  main:
     trap
     .byte 0xfc
     .byte 0xff
     ...

etc. Assemble, run that in gdb, it traps immediately, and just disassemble from PC.

The entire article was like 100X what anyone deserves. It was an awesome amount of detail. I absolutely love when random lost pieces of hardware/software history end up right where they belong with exactly the right person to know what to do with them.
