Do you know where that leading ':' is coming from?

It's sometimes used as shorthand for 'true' in shell scripts, and 'true' is 
sometimes used as a low-effort 'no-op', but the 'exec' builtin (rightfully) 
doesn't care about any of that:

  moloch:~λ exec :
  -bash: exec: :: not found

Kind regards,
