   First, I have never used virtual configs, nor do I understand what they are for. But when you say "around an existing executable", the "exe" directory would already have been created by Cactus' installation script, wouldn't it?

   But in any case I don't see harm in creating the directory if it is not there yet. Of course, someone might have set EXEDIR to something, and simfactory should probably honor it.

   I don't know what they were created for. In my case they are convenient for a tutorial to let the students use a pre-compiled executable with their own Cactus tree. Since they never compiled there is no exe directory. Ie what they do is (schematically):

   GetComponents http://einsteintoolkit.org/about/gallery/NsNsToHMNS/NsNsToHMNS.th
   cd Cactus
   simfactory/bin/sim setup
   simfactory/bin/sim build --virtual --virtual-executable ~rhaas/Cactus/exec/cactus_sim
   simfactory/bin/sim create-submit ...
