I'm not sure.
Anything in ../bin is put there by "make install". I'm pretty sure make
maintainer-clean doesn't uninstall installed executables on other platforms
either, but then those platforms will also have installed copies of
other things that maintainer-clean does delete. Also if cmdproxy.exe is
the only file left in ../bin, then that seems more like a buggy
oversight than deliberately leaving the installed files alone.
