This target is excluded from the default build and isn't a dependency of outside
targets. However it is still a valid target (which won't link) on Linux. This
source file isn't being excluded because it doesn't have 'win' in the name. The
source file which would have caused it to be generated does have 'win' in the
name and was excluded.
