 * Name: exec
 *
 * Description:
 *   This is a convenience function that wraps load_ and exec_module into
 *   one call.
 *
 * Input Parameter:
 *   filename - Fulll path to the binary to be loaded
 *   argv     - Argument list
 *   exports  - Table of exported symbols
 *   nexports - The number of symbols in exports
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   This is an end-user function, so it follows the normal convention:
 *   Returns the PID of the exec'ed module.  On failure, it.returns
 *   -1 (ERROR) and sets errno appropriately.
