Yes they do. I mentioned it but I didn't think it was the reason

well, that's not what happens when people bisect back and forth. It
used to be reasonably safe, it got unsafe when we moved lots of things

message about it). Now there might something acting up again.

Alas, I didn't keep a backup of my libexec :-/
