Comment(by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:32 jhpalmieri]:
 > Regarding the use of "exec", which was suggested by Leif, was in my
 version of the patch, and is in the current patch: if we want to be able
 to do something like `sage --norc -c ...` (as in #11932), then we want to
 be able to delete the temporary `DOTSAGE` directory after the Sage command
 finishes.  Using "exec" prevents this, doesn't it?
 Using `exec` '''here''' doesn't prevent that.  It just means that we
 cannot implement `--norc` itself using `exec`, which is fine.

 Example:
 scriptA does
 {{{
 scriptB
 cleanup
 }}}

 scriptB does
 {{{
 exec scriptC
 cleanup2
 }}}

 The `exec` in `scriptB` doesn't prevent the `cleanup` in `scriptA`, it
 only prevents the `cleanup2` in `scriptB`.
