This looks OK to me.  Only comment I have is whether the '/' is needed in the following line with the TI_BIN_UNPK_WDEXT option already add a '/'.  I guess while not technically necessary it would keep this code working if someone didn't define TI_BIN_UNPK_WDEXT with a leading '/'.

wdext = workdir + '/' + wdext

Sorry for the previous lack of response.  Thank you for the patch and fixing this issue.
