I took this to mean, is there some kind of gcc switch that compiles into a 16-bit executable format instead of 32-bit format.

If you interpret the question that way [and I see no reason NOT to interpret it that way, I just didn't do that], then you are correct - it's not possible. To do that, you need a proper 16-bit compiler.
