We have a function (on dosexec.c) that seems to be written for direct 
execution of sh-like shell scripts (`script_exec').  It is currently 
effectively disabled, but its code is still compiled.  Is there any good 
reasons to keep it?  It is limited to scripts that only invoke programs, 
because it doesn't understand built-in shell commands, and the new 
`system' should support Unix-like shells much better.  Can we just ifdef 
it away?
