> rdmd -ofprog prog.d

On 2.064.2 and below, that produces "prog.exe". On 2.065-b3 it produces "prog"
with no .exe extension. Then it tries to run "prog.exe" which, if you're lucky
doesn't already exist, or if you're unlucky already exists as an older version
of your program.

This appears to occur because of the change where RDMD now appends ".tmp" to
the -of arg it passes DMD, and then removes the ".tmp" extension after DMD
succeeds. DMD sees the ".tmp" extension and therefore decides it doesn't need
to auto-add a .exe extension.
