Well, more information, as pointed out, is needed to eliminate some
possibilities.  From the log of the startup in question:

$ define /system/exec/nolog bii$system $1$dua1:[bii.sys]
$ define /system /exec /nolog sysuaf bii$system:sysuaf.dat

So, as all can see, it was indeed defined in executive_mode.

Any other thoughts?  Thanks for the replies so far.

   This was probably the most disastrous election result for the American
   people since James Buchanon became president.  Heaven help us.
