No, on BeOS there is no problem: EXEEXT is empty there.

Then let's add the extension. It's an idiom that is not difficult to
follow:
  1. use ${EXEEXT} when executing a compiled program,
  2. in the module description, add
       TESTS_ENVIRONMENT += EXEEXT='@EXEEXT@'

We have been doing this for several years already.
