No thanks. Such a patch would have the effect of installing some programs
under /usr/libexec if the prefix is = /usr. This would be against the
Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, which says
"/usr/lib includes object files, libraries, and internal binaries that
are not intended to be executed directly by users or shell scripts."
and doesn't mention /usr/libexec.
