On my system dozens of executables do have a '.' near the end of their names, either representing a version (e.g. perl5.10.0.exe, python2.5.exe), or OCaml native code (*.opt.exe), or for other reasons (e.g. *.bin.exe where the program is launched via a script). How does this change affect building/installing them?
