In the meantime I pushed an old version which has been
originally developed by Georg afaik (Jukka pointed me to it), it
looks as follows - and in contrast to most other solutions this
one checks if it's really executable for the user (which is a
good point Jukka!):

#!/bin/sh
IFS=:
for dir in $PATH
do
        for file in "$dir"/*
        do
                test -x "$file" && echo "${file##*/}"
        done
done | sort -u

Will be part of dmenu-2.5. But before I release dmenu-2.5 I will
wait until dwm-3.7 is ready to be released (approx. tomorrow).
