Summary:
Compiling an app with a Bundle name or Bundle display name with a value ending with ".s" are shown in Springboard with as ".s.app", e.g.: "foo.s" is displayed as "foo.s.app". 

The same name is wrongly displayed on the delete confirmation alert.

The same bug occurs with names similar to source files, such as those ending in ".c", ".h", ".m" or ".cpp".

Does not occur with ".a", ".p", ".d", at least.

Other kind of endings the name without the ".app" suffix.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Xcode 6.2. 
2. Create new iOS app (any kind)
3. Name the project as "foo.s" (check Info.plist for Display Name/Bundle Display name as being exactly "foo.s")
4. Run the project on an iOS 8.0-8.2 device/simulator. Note that app name is displayed as "foo.s.app".
5. Run the project with iOS 7 device or simulator. Note that app is displayed as "foo.s" as intended.


Expected Results:
Name displayed on Springboard without ".app" suffix.

Actual Results:
On iOS 8 devices, app name is shown as "foo.s.app".

Version:
iOS 8.0 up to iOS 8.2

Notes:


Configuration:
Various kinds of iPhones
