Not as far as I know. "git grep SHELL" show mostly "SHELL_PATH", and
the testsuite passes for me with SHELL=zsh.

This exec command is a bit of a special case: I wanted the user to
keep the advanced features of his shell (for example, the ** wildcard
of zsh and recent bash), not just allow executing commands.
