You should be able to execute binaries anywhere if you specify an absolute path rather than relying on `PATH`. That there are regular use binaries in `/etc` strikes me as extremly odd. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

Specifying an absolute path other than /bin or /usr gives the error Binary file execution denied in mountpoints.	[reply]
