I know with ar I can extract the object files from a library...
ar x bla.a
and of course recombine them
ar cr bla2.a *.o
ranlib bla2.a
Now is there a way to do the same thing with exe's?
I've been playing around with nextstep and rhapsody, and I've managed to compile on nextstep, but link on rhapsody, and it'll run.. I'd like to test some other stuff further, but it'd be more fun to rip apart exe's...
So does anyone know if such a thing exists?

No. You are describing unpacking staticly linked libraries. Executables throw away too much info when they are linked. Bare in mind that object files are part of a compiler implementation, not part of the executable format.
