The only option you should be using is -bnoautoimp.  

-bnogc will attempt to make a monstrous output module containing the
whole contents of all the libraries you've included.

-berok suppresses error messages AND marks the module non-executable.
It is what is causing the "Exec format error".  

Make sure your program which defines malloc also defines free and
realloc.

(If you are using -berok because you get undefined errors you will
have to fix the errors.)
