rustc ICE output filename begins with .

Updated Report

rustc fails when using a 'hidden' filename. It works for --out-dir if there's a dir with that name.

Original Report

First some info:

meow $ git remote -v
origin  git@github.com:killerswan/meow.git (fetch)
origin  git@github.com:killerswan/meow.git (push)
meow $ 
meow $ git log -1 --oneline
00e82d4 various makefile changes (and also showing an ICE when building src/demo.rs)

Now a working build:

meow $ rustc -o demo_exe --test src/demo.rs

An ICE after just adding a period:

meow $ rustc -o .demo_exe --test src/demo.rs
task 'rustc' failed at 'called `Option::unwrap()` on a `None` value', /Users/kevin/code/rust/src/libstd/option.rs:133
error: internal compiler error: unexpected failure
This message reflects a bug in the Rust compiler. 
We would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/mozilla/rust/wiki/HOWTO-submit-a-Rust-bug-report
note: the compiler hit an unexpected failure path. this is a bug
note: try running with RUST_LOG=rustc=1 to get further details and report the results to github.com/mozilla/rust/issues
task '<main>' failed at 'explicit failure', /Users/kevin/code/rust/src/librustc/lib.rs:444

Working after changing to crate_id, still using a period:
