I found out that the problem was in the customization of the variable exec-path
which is used for subprocess calls.  It was somehow customized to an old and
invalid path. I don't know why and when I should have done this :-( I fixed it
and it works fine. I tried to leave this variable without customization at all
because I wanted to use the same value that (getenv "PATH") uses for the sake of
simplicity. This is not working at the moment. Maybe someone can tell how do it.
