No. My command(1p) says
-v Write a string to standard output that indicates the pathname
or command that will be used by the shell, in the current
and it's true; the pathname is used by the shell.
$ ls -l /tmp/foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 ralph ralph 14 Sep 4 13:47 /tmp/foo
$ PATH=/tmp:$PATH bash -c foo
bash: /tmp/foo: Permission denied
autoconf's ./configure here does
test -f "$1" && test -x "$1"
rather than command(1).
