Environment details:
Relo v1.0 + my windres patch, Win2k SP4, MinGW GCC [no
MSYS].

Detail:
Normally the build works fine, so the environment is
ok. I noticed when I add "-o c:\path\newname.exe" to
the project's linker options, build and make will work
as normal BUT always report "failed" whether or not the
build actually succeeded.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Setup a normal MinGW build environment. Test it to
make sure it works.
2. Add "-o c:\path\newname.exe" to the project's linker
options.
3. Hit "Build" in a current project and wait for the
build to complete. Note the compile window says "Failed".

Additional:
At link time, the compiler window says "Linking
oldname.exe" instead of "Linking newname.exe".
