This is, as they say, the plot thickens. The above is correct for all
versions of GCC before 2.8. GCC 2.8 and 2.8.1 produce a stubbed .exe
file even if you say "-o foo". 2.8.x still produces two copies of the
file: foo and foo.exe, but both have the stub prepended. "-o foo.exe"
produces only foo.exe, like before.
