TI COFF versions.  The latest of this writing is 2; versions 0 and 1 are
also supported.  The TI COFF versions also vary in header byte-order
format; <samp><span class="command">ld</span></samp> will read any version or byte order, but the output
header format depends on the default specified by the specific target.
