Zoltan: the executable() command might need to be improved on VMS 
system as every EXE and COM is executable on VMS if the user has 
sufficient rights.

Sam: plus every symbol that executes either of the above (using 
@a.com, $a.exe, or mcr a.exe).

---
Original impulse: perl.vim asks if executable('perl'), which on VMS 
falsely returns false.
