Yes, we have a problem.

We could solve this for commands issued in "git foo" form by not
looking for "git-foo" anywhere other than in git_exec_path.  The
scripts and tests only prepend GIT_EXEC_PATH to their PATH and
run "git foo" or "git-foo", but if we replace all of them to the
non-dash form, wouldn't that solve the issue as well?
