Hi,
I assume the whole need is that, accesing flash from other mcu is to be bypassed, and xmos mmcu takes this role of sending the flash data.
In such a case, can you try creating flash data partitions to store this 'other' bin file (instead of including it in the mcu bin image), read it from the xmos mcu program and send it to the target MCU "on-the-fly"?
Some reference for flashlib api:
