I've asked previously on IRC and was told that it was OK. Let me see
if I still have the logs. Oh, it was you who answered me. So this
isn't terribly useful, but since I dug it up....

So it should either go in /usr/share or /usr/libexec

We don't use /usr/libexec, do we? I thought it was heavily
discouraged.

Of course there's piles of stuff in it.
[Tue May 16 2006] [15:24:47] <abadger1999>
tibbs: We do in fedora.
[Tue May 16 2006] [15:24:59] <abadger1999>
tibbs: It's other distros where it's heavily discouraged.

rpmlint does complain about libexec however.

/usr/libexec should be fine for binaries and stuff not directly
called by the user. according to FHS at least.
