It looks like this patch makes *.exe boring. I think it's fairly common 
practise for Windows repos to contain binaries for the uncommon 
tools/dlls that are required and I can't think that any other platform 
is particularly interested in *.exe files, so I'd quite like to remove 
exe from the list, here. Would anyone mind if I submitted a followup 
patch (to the followup) to remove it?

TortoiseDarcs could serve as an example of such use; it contains a 
darcs.exe and several ssh tools. Maybe there's a better way.

Regards,
Grant Husbands.
