Public bug reported:

If the exec script is missing the following error is given at the start
of the run:

  The path to the --execscript file is invalid: SCRIPTNAME. Make sure
you are providing a full path.

It might be nice to also check to see if the script is executable and
provide a helpful message to that effect.  The current behavior if the
script isn't executable is to spend the time building the image and then
at the end die with a stack trace ending with the slightly unintuitive
error message:

  OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied
