you can use the call:

   texmfstart texexec ...

alternative you can replace texexec in you bin path by:

   #!/bin/sh
   texmfstart texexec.pl $@

first of all, texmfstart only depends on ruby, and more important, it knows how 
to locate things in the texmftree (the tds structure occasionally changes and 
texmfstart can adapt to that)
