"make check" does not work for Windows crosses because check-TESTS
depends on $(TESTS), which includes "test-allocaopt".  So make attempts
to make it instead of "test-allocaopt.exe".  I think that under native
configurations make attempts to add the ".exe" automatically, but I am
not sure of that.

It should be possible to fix this with a

sed -i '/^TESTS/ s/\(test-[-a-z0-9_]*\)\( \|$\)/\1$(EXEEXT)\2/g' *-tests

command in the modules directory (yes, tested).  It still wouldn't fix
the fact that tests need to be invoked with Wine, though.
