Subject:	.exe handling change in fileutils-4.1-2

In reply to: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-11/msg00478.html
--------------------------------------------------------------

It is normal to see "touch foo.exe; cp foo bar" fail. You just created 
foo.exe, which is definitely not foo. Check with "ls -l".

The current versions of autoconf and automake define and use 
EXEEXT=.exe. Check your Makefile.am or Makefile.in files and add 
$(EXEEXT) to all commands that involve executables.

Good luck,

Doru Carastan
