I think that it should be simple enough to fix.  Since we have no
intention to actually execute the compiled binary there is no need
to use a filename that conforms to the host OS's notion of executable
file names.  So we can just drop the use of $(exe).  See the attached
patch.  Does this work for you ?

Cheers
