In later versions of teTeX, texexec is a little script that tries to
find and run the real texexec.pl in the texmf/context/perltk
directory:
#!/bin/sh
what=`echo $0 | sed 's@.*/@@'`
p=`kpsewhich -progname=context -format='other text files' $what.pl`
{ test -n "$p" && test -f "$p"; } \
|| { echo "\`$what.pl' not found."; exit 1; }
perl "$p" "$@"
If your version of teTeX works this way, then you should leave the
perl scripts where they are, under their original name, and you
should also leave the teTeX version of texexec and the various
symlinks to it alone.
