The syscalls.cc file (function stat_worker) contains the following lines:

  /* If we can't find the name, try again with a .exe suffix
     [but only if not already present].  */
  /* FIXME: Doing this is of dubious merit.  */
  if (atts == -1
      && ((len = strlen (win32_name)) < 5
	  || strcasecmp (win32_name + len - 4, ".exe")))
    {
      debug_printf ("_stat_worker: trying with .exe suffix\n");
      strcpy (tmp, win32_name);
      strcat (tmp, ".exe");
      win32_name = tmp;
      atts = GetFileAttributesA (tmp);
    }

I don't know - is this code needed or not.
