I hate to say it aj, but you just gave him a hell of an out there...

#!/bin/sh
# This is /usr/in/gettext.sh
if [ "$0" = "gettext.sh" ]; then
        echo "Ha ha, I'm executable, so I can be in path!"
        exit 1
fi
# insert rest of gettext.sh here

If anyone is as sickened by that as I am, I think I have an old proposal
filed against debian-policy to get rid of programs in path with an
extension that tells what the implementation language is. Feel free to
second..
