Actually, this is acceptable since I set gitexecdir to $(bindir) in my 
make invocation.

*BUT* the recent discussion of not creating the hardlinks in 
git/core/libexec, introducing obnoxious warnings when using the dashed 
forms, and eventually having the git binary error when invoked as a 
dashed command is NOT acceptable. The discussion that happened in 
November and December 2006 was only about about moving the executables 
out of /usr/bin, not the completely disabling of the dashed forms for 
those users and distributions that want them.
