Update script assumes scripts can be executed (execute access)

Hi

My provider has banned direct execution of scripts in the RCM's installation directory.

So when I try to execute the update script "intallto.sh /my/rcm/directory" it fails at the end saying :
-su: bin/update.sh: permission denied

The script itself can not be executed, I must execute the interpreter that will execute the script.

So I had to add the interpreter's name "php " to line 74 :
system("cd $target_dir && php bin/update.sh --version=$oldversion");

Then I had to add the same interpreter's name "php " to /my/rcm/directory/bin/update.sh on lines 149 and 157 :
149: system("php " . INSTALL_PATH . "bin/updatedb.sh --package=roundcube --version=" . $opts['version']
157: system("php " . INSTALL_PATH . 'bin/indexcontacts.sh');

I think this should work on every systems, even the ones with execution restrictions.

Bye for now,
Daggett
