mklinuximage is only "built" (converted from .in to a shell script) if 
you have a linker which supports the appropriate arguments ... I
forget what they are, but the magic that checks this is in the
configure script..

Looking in configure.in, it says its testing for '-oformat binary'.

I can't offer any real help on getting a linker that supports '-oformat 
binary' other than to point you at a recent GNU binutils(?).
