Do not allow execution if signed binary has interpreter. We don't have a way to verify the signature of libraries interpreter can map. So do not allow exec() of such binary.
Currently this signing process works only for statically linked binaries. Well it does not prevent an application to use dlopen(). In that case, these binaries should not be signed. If a method to verify signature of shared libraries comes along, then I think we can verify the signature of interpreter and allow launching interpreter.
