Regardnig the .tds file created with the Borland compiler wrapper, it is
actually a problem that lies elsewhere.
The problem is that the compile test is invoked like this:
$CC -o conftest -c conftest.c
The compiler wrappers we've written does pretty basic translation between
standard options and native compiler options. The -o option on the above
line triggers the linking of an executable, which causes all sorts of
other files to be created, including the .exe file which becomes the
current OBJEXT on our projects when we compile on Cygwin :-(. When we've
tweaked the wrappers to parse "-c" as "compile only", this problem will
hopefully be fixed.
