I did show in my initial report with an example, actually, that fish
does *have* an "exec" command --
it just doesn't have quite the required behavior. Though I think it's
questionable to require the
shell to support any specific command set, SuSv2 notwithstanding.

I'm afraid I don't know; it happens with the RHEL6 fish 2.1.2, in any
event.
