The git exec-path on EL5 is /usr/bin, which was a requirement when 
updating from 1.5 to prevent scripts from breaking.

You'll find git-http-backend there:

$ rpm -qpl git-1.8.2.1-1.el5.i386.rpm | grep 'git-http-backend$'
/usr/bin/git-http-backend

You can use 'git --exec-path' to get the correct path, if you need to 
determine the path in scripts.
