It looks as though `stubify' is being unable to rename over Sample.exe with
the stubbed version. This seems strange, since `ld' had no trouble writing
it. What kind of circumstance would make `rename' over an existing file
fail, but not writing?

See if `ren foo Sample.exe' works, where `foo' is any random file. Do this
after the compile fails.

What are the attributes of Sample.exe? See what `attrib Sample.exe' prints.
