Re: 1.7.9: stat --append-exe option is ineffective (coreutils-8.10-1)

Hi,

The cygwin-specific `--append-exe' option (announced here [1]) is
ineffective for stat command (it works fine for ls).

Here is a simple test case to reproduce the problem.

This command should print "bash.exe":
$ (cd /bin && /usr/bin/stat -t --append-exe bash | cut -d ' ' -f 1)
bash

Thanks for pointing this out - I just noticed it, and it's a good thing that I caught it before shipping 8.14-1.
