Even if this lines will be deleted, there is no /usr/libexec/aout in the
default PATH anycase, only /usr/bin is there. It means that users can't
call f.e. 'size' or 'strings' now. Since default PATH is hardcoded as
#define in paths.h, no simple changes possible (in some cases login.conf
or csh.cshrc PATH settings tricks are not desired).
