This executables is not need to be in the PATH, they are called by udev tools 
in background. They Follow the /usr/lib/<program>/* idea to separate 
libraries, backstage daemons, whatever from system aplications runned in 
terminals, but it is put in /lib because the /usr may not be mounted on 
earlies stages of system boot. 

KBD has the same approach, and personaly, I put the iptables modules there too 
(my Firewall starts very early :-) )
