Subject: cygport dropping  *.exe links
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi Yaakov,
I just noted a strange effect

during installation phase of openmpi a certain numbers of links to exe 
files are created as

(cd /pub/devel/openmpi/64bit/openmpi-1.8.2rc4-1.x86_64/inst/usr/bin; rm 
-f mpirun.exe; ln -s orterun.exe mpirun.exe)

and they are there during the cyginstall
$ ls ../inst/usr/bin/
cygmpi_cxx-1.dll     cygopen-pal-6.dll  mpicxx       mpifort 
ompi-ps.exe       ortecc          orte
cygmpi_mpifh-2.dll   cygopen-rte-7.dll  mpiexec.exe  mpirun.exe 
ompi-server.exe   orte-clean.exe  orte
cygmpi_usempi-1.dll  mpic++             mpif77       ompi_info.exe 
ompi-top.exe      orted.exe       orte
cygmpi-1.dll         mpicc              mpif90       ompi-clean.exe 
opal_wrapper.exe  orte-info.exe   orte


but at post cyginstall phase they are gone:

$ ls ../inst/usr/bin/
cygmpi_cxx-1.dll     cygmpi-1.dll       mpic++  mpif77   ompi_info.exe 
    orte-clean.exe  orte-ps.exe
cygmpi_mpifh-2.dll   cygopen-pal-6.dll  mpicc   mpif90 
opal_wrapper.exe  orted.exe       orterun.exe
cygmpi_usempi-1.dll  cygopen-rte-7.dll  mpicxx  mpifort  ortecc

Is it possible that latest binutils update is fooling cygport ?
In the past, it seems they were renamed ( mpirun.exe to mpirun)
