It depends on what you expect it to do. I'd expect it to immediately terminate your program (and all tasks) without doing any cleanup or finalization, before executing the new program. This is probably not what I *want* my program to do, but it's what I'd expect calling execve() to do. Whatever it does, it sounds like a recipe for disaster.
