I've pushed a fix,

-) | exec ${SHELL:-"/bin/sh"}
+) | ${SHELL:-"/bin/sh"} &

The exec must have been ignored because of the pipe, so it's best we
just fork instead. I've not added "echo exec", because one can run
complete shell commands in dmenu_run, including '&&' etc., and that
would mess that up.

Thanks,
