Martin, EXECUTE is specifically for stored procedures.. Whilst the privilege is available in >= 4.0.2, it has no effect at all until 5.0.something. This is all documented in the "Privileges provided by MySQL" manual page I believe.. EXECUTE on a GLOBAL level would, of course, allow the grantee to call any stored procedure.
