Looking for gcc.exe

Hi,
I've just installed a fresh "CYGWIN_NT-6.0-WOW64 desktop2 1.7.5(0.225/5/3) 
2010-04-12 19:07 i686 Cygwin", including gcc-4 (4.3.4-3).

According to http://cygwin.com/packages/ there should be an executable named 
gcc.exe in there - but I see only gcc-4.exe. As a quick fix I've created a 
copy of gcc-4.exe named gcc.exe, and I expect that will work ok. (I've also 
done the same wrt cpp-4.exe, g++-4.exe and gcov-4.exe.) Is that what we're 
supposed to do ? ... or did I miss something ?

Here's the output of my 'gcc -v':
