GCC uses 'eabi' and 'elf' on some targets to mean bare metal. We can either
use those, in indeed introduce 'bare' as target-os.

I'm confused. Are the object files created? (Which would suggest that error
message comes from compiler) Or the compilation fails, while the 
/c/analog/tools5.0_andromeda/ccblkfn file exists? I'd suggest you try to 
specify the path using Windows paths and see what happens.
