I think Ian mant that "callee" was compiled ito a separate
executable in the path. In any case, I think that the reason Execute()
doesn't return the proper value is that it's busted. There are a few
other problems with Execute() as well. Arp's SyncRun() command
seems to work just fine, though,so you can use that until Excute()
is fixed (in 1.4? please??)
