Misleading error when attempting to run foreign executable

Hello,


I'm using bash 5.0.3 on GNU/Linux. When I mount a GNU/Hurd filesystem and
try to run an executable found there, I get for example:

  bash: ./ext2fs: No such file or directory

This seems a misleading error to me. The file is there and is
executable, I guess it can't be run on my system but I think that
another error message would be more appropriate.

Is this an issue with bash or maybe with the kernel?



Let me know,

Andrea Monaco
