Actually it is just how the script works. I wold also bee more satisfied
with a name without the dash release, but then I looked to the names of
previous releases, and since they also have the dash release, I left it.
Maybe it wold be better to modify the script for the next release...

I'm not the author of the script, so I don't know why it doesn't
generate the installer, but it is quite simple to do it: use
--save-temps to prevent the deletion of the dist directory and then:
* chdir to ./dist/gputils
* run the following command from DOS command prompt:
"c:\Program Files\NSIS\makensis.exe" gputils.nsi
the Windows setup package gputils-0.13.5-1.exe will be created
in the current directory
This can be also done from the make-mingw script, the only problem might
be that it should work both on Linux and Windows...
