In a run script, you could use:
#!/command/execlineb -P
Your environment will be cleaner.

 You won't have any execline-specific problems.
 But instead of having a /bin/sh hanging around, you'll have a
/command/foreground hanging around.

... supervise foo
    \_ foreground
       \_ foo

instead of
... supervise foo
    \_ foo

 This means that you won't be able to use svc to send signals to your
service.

 It's better to forget post-cmd entirely, and have your run script exec
into your service. If you really need a post-cmd, switch from daemontools
to runit, and use runsv's "finish script" feature.
