Backward compatibility sucks. Take a look at Windows. If you are a
programmer, maybe you have heard about "agile" methodologies? They say:
if something doesn't work well - change it. In this case changing some
scripts is natural as leaving workarounds makes systems more
complicated, trashed and harder to maintain.

If the file is in *wrong* place - move it and fix scripts. There is
quite a chance that some of these scripts dont have hardcoded location
and relay on the PATH. And - please don't be kidding - what is the cost
of fixing these scripts?
