I'm happy of you can find something cleaner.
We can't just have a dependency of all on $(PROGRAM)($X) because if
PROGRAM is empty but X is not it will do something horrid like try to
build ".exe".
If we do it the way Zoltan suggested then on Windows even if
$(PROGRAM)$(X) exists and is up to date it could be rebuilt, since the
target name won't exist.
