++                         * Cygwin automatically removes the ".exe" extension from argv[0]
++                         * to make programs feel like they are in a more Unix-like
++                         * environment.  Unfortunately, this can make it problemmatic for
++                         * Cygwin to distinguish between a directory and an executable with
++                         * the same name excluding the ".exe" extension.  For example, the
++                         * Cygwin Python build directory has a "Python" directory and a
++                         * "python.exe" executable.  This causes isxfile() to erroneously
++                         * return false.  If isdir() returns true and there is enough space
++                         * to append the ".exe" extension, then we try again with the
++                         * extension appended.
