Nope.  IIRC, one of the 3.1.0 alphas had a version of the code
in which execute() was boolean, but that meant you had to use
expr(execute("blah")) to run anything.  Also, it wasn't obvious
what boolean value should be returned: true if execution was
successful, or true if return code is zero?  So we punted.

You're wecome to send this to dhcp-suggest though.
