Summary:                    The gcc 4.1 configure scripts do not set EXEEXT
correctly when building under Cygwin
Description: 
EXEEXT is set to an empty string in gcc-4.1*/gcc/Makefile
This is done by the configure scripts of all 3 stages of the gcc build

I know Cygwin is not supported and that this is probably a mistake of the
gcc team, but it would make life a lot easier if buildroot could patch gcc
to compensate for this problem.
