Summary: Distutils config _link doesn't clean up

Initial Comment:
The distutils.config.config._link method doesn't 
return the right program name for win32 and hence 
doesn't clean up after itself properly.  There's a 
comment about this in the source...is there a reason 
this isn't done?

Anyways, the offending code is:

prog = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(src))[0] 
self.temp_files.append(prog)

which should be changed to

prog = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(src))[0] 
if sys.platform == 'win32': prog = prog + '.exe'
self.temp_files.append(prog)

The sys module needs to imported also.

thanks,
Tarn

Sorry, previous fix doesn't quite work.

The lines:

if sys.platform == 'win32': prog = prog + '.exe'
self.temp_files.append(prog)

need to be placed after the line:

self.compiler.link_executable(...

otherwise the executable gets the wrong name
