Yes, quoting from RELEASE:


** API changes
   [snip]

   exec-path-list is now a preseved thread fluid


See also the documentation of exec-path-list in the manual:

exec-path-list         string list thread-fluid 

[snip]

To access, rebind or side-effect thread-fluid cells, you must open the 
thread-fluids package.


Turning exec-path-list into a thread fluid was necessary to get the
desired behavior in conjunction with threads. Sorry about the
inconvenience.
