Well, Cppsym.try looks like this​:

#!d​:/bin/sh.exe
cat <<'EOCP' > try.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
EOCP
d​:/bin/awk \
'length($1) > 0 {
  printf "#ifdef %s\n#if %s+0\nprintf(\"%s=%%ld\\n\", %s);\n#else\nprintf(\"%s\\n\");\n#endif\n#endif\n", $1, $1, $1, $1, $1
  printf "#ifdef _%s\n#if _%s+0\nprintf(\"_%s=%%ld\\n\", _%s);\n#else\nprintf(\"_%s\\n\");\n#endif\n#endif\n", $1, $1, $1, $1, $1
  printf "#ifdef __%s\n#if __%s+0\nprintf(\"__%s=%%ld\\n\", __%s);\n#else\nprintf(\"__%s\\n\");\n#endif\n#endif\n", $1, $1, $1, $1, $1
  printf "#ifdef __%s__\n#if __%s__+0\nprintf(\"__%s__=%%ld\\n\", __%s__);\n#else\nprintf(\"__%s__\\n\");\n#endif\n#endif\n", $1, $1, $1, $1, $1

echo '}' >> try.c

cp ./try.exe /allen/UU650

and a little testing shows​:

D​:\EMX\BIN\ld.exe​: The output file name must not have a suffix if -Zexe is used

Yes. Probably a wrong value for $exe_suffix (sp?)? $ld and $ldopt
(sp?) are set up to have no .exe on -o argument.

$exe_ext.

The other places Configure compiles a try.c it just uses -o try
