the testsuite is not relevant for these changes.

Coreutils are tweaked to manage "program" and "program.exe" as they
are the same thing and other similar things.
Some changes were propagated upstream and some not; I looked at the
first patch rejected, and upstream have reversed the logic of a test
that the patch was modifying to add one of these cases, so modifying the
source is not banal and need some consideration and test.

Both requires time that someone need to put for it.
