EXEEXT and -link

[Earnie Boyd]

There's a problem in that libtool directs the binary output to the .libs 
directory with a script built to execute the binary.  The script does 
not and cannot have the .exe extention.  So the question is, how to go 
about resolving the issue?

The issue is the fact that the make target is modified by the EXEEXT 
variable.  Therefore the target isn't complete when doing things like 
`make check' or `make install'.  Make therefore builds the binaries again.

As a resolution, should libtool.m4 capture the value of EXEEXT into it's 
own variable (e.g.: lt_EXEEXT) and reset EXEEXT to null?
