John McCabe said

"Not in my experience. My current compiler uses a proprietary format
and even when using an Tek emulator with a Tek 8086 Pascal
cross-compiler on a VAX we had to use a separate utility to format the
output for use in the emuulator."

The fact that one particular system is not organized enough to have a well
defined ABI and compilers and tools that conform to this ABI is hardly
significant. The fact is that many systems *do* have such conventions,
and they are followed!
