While I have no official status to ok this, the patch looks good to
me.
The only danger is, the ./a.out's should be transformed to ./foo.exe
names, not foo.exe names, to retain the `sameness'. The ./ is not
without meaning, if . isn't `soon' enough in the path and the name is
used to run the testcase.

Fixing this after the fact tends to be fairly obscure.
