Originally it was actually an applet,
like /usr/libexec/battstat-applet-2, that should only get run by
gnome-session, not directly.  Which is still pretty much the case, its
not meant to be hand-run after its been added to your session.  It's
debatable whether or not it should continue to live in /usr/libexec now
though, since its not a panel applet any more, but a notification icon.
