 {{{

     Fix driver not to normalise output when using platform specific output
 files
 }}}

 I don't understand why that change was made. It makes
 `T11223_link_order_a_b_2_fail` and `T11223_simple_duplicate_lib` fail on
 Windows, when running with `BINDIST=YES` (or, after accepting the
 `BINDIST=YES` output, when running with `BINDIST=NO`).
