'libexec' is included on core-updates{,-frozen}.  I believe the idea of the
restriction is to avoid patching too much.  E.g., "autoconf" has a file
share/autoconf/build-aux/config.guess with a #!/bin/sh shebang.  It should
not be patched, otherwise tarballs created with "make dist" would include
a store path and hence be Guix-specific and architecture-specific.

Greetings,
Maxime.
