The code you are complaining about was fixed in commit
89f58b27832f8fc7b443988d02e56cfaba12eb5a as part of support for
regression testing for bug#42399 and documentation for host_execute was
added in the node "Running unit tests" in commit
aa173cea24b94d3f714f07bbbfda85740e8e77db. These will be in 1.6.3.
Closing report as already fixed; not in current master.
