Because $RAWBIN_DIR can be ignored when wrapping. This means that
stuff that's already in it won't be added again.

Constructing the wrapper is not so much the problem, it's not wrapping
the already wrapped binaries. Plus the .-real binaries showing up in
$PATH remains an issue if they don't move :)
