Symlinks ending in .exe have been the source of confusion, and coreutils
6.9 will change it so that unless you explicitly request .exe, your
symlink will be created without the extension.  The coreutils 6.9
postinstall script will correct your package's symlinks in your behalf,
but that means that 'cygcheck -c' might report your package as incomplete.
 The simplest solution is to rebuild your package with coreutils 6.9
installed, and post it for upload.

I'll be leaving 6.9 in experimental status for a week or two; hopefully we
can get the bulk of these packages cleaned up and thus minimize the number
of spurious bug reports on the main list.

This list was generated by installing everything, then running:

find /usr/bin /usr/sbin -type l -name '*.exe' | \
  xargs cygcheck -f | sort -u

For reference, the coreutils postinstall script will run:

for f in `find /usr/bin /usr/sbin -type l -name '*.exe'` ; do
  /bin/ln -sf "$(/bin/readlink "$f")" "${f//.exe}" || :
done

Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
