/*
 * execvpe.c
 *
 * execvpe() function (from which we build execlp, execlpe, execvp).
 *
 * This version of execvpe() will *not* spawn /bin/sh if the command
 * return ENOEXEC.  That's what #! is for, folks!
 *
 * Since execlpe() and execvpe() aren't in POSIX, nor in glibc,
 * I have followed QNX precedent in the implementation of the PATH:
 * the PATH that is used is the one in the current environment, not
 * in the new environment.
