cygwin gets very confused if both .exe and non-.exe exist

Subject: cygwin gets very confused if both .exe and non-.exe exist

If you ever try to copy Hard Hat Linux to cygwin
and build cygwin binutils and gcc on top of it,
be darn sure to remove all ELF x86 executables
first -- else world+dog gets very, very, very confused.
My build script now does this on entry to prevent
brainfreeze.

What makes this harder to track down is strace doesn't
work quite right on cygwin... I had to copy xgcc to the
current directory before I could strace it.  Very odd.
