Great.  Note that on a native Windows machine the output of the first
one works.  It breaks only under Wine.  Please try it also in directory

 good_build_dir/CMakeFiles/CompilerIdC

There should be "a.exe" in that directory also.  Try the info.cmake
there with both CMake builds.  What are the outputs?

I think file(STRINGS) may run correctly for the C compiler's "a.exe"
because it does find the compiler id.  It may depend on the content
of the input file.  That is what the above test will reveal.

The link line generation for Fortran fails because CMake does not
identify the Fortran compiler due to the file(STRINGS) problem.
It does identify the C compiler so linking works.
