The purpose is to try an use as few modified rules for Cygwin as possible.
By fixing ComplexProgramTarget_1 we can fall back on the default rules for
_2 through _10, which saves a lot of clutter in cygwin.rules and reduces the
number of rules that must be maintained.
I can't remember for sure, but there may have been another reason as well...
I'll have to try to dig it up again.
