Why are you trying to run executables in /usr/libexec? To quote man hier,
/usr/libexec is full of "system daemons & system utilities (executed by
other programs)." If all is working right, you don't need to execute them.

Anything that needs to execute them will use the full path to the file, so
the fact /usr/libexec's not in your PATH environment variable will not be
a problem.

Take care,
