argv[0] needs to be an absolute path

[Sylvain Petreolle]

What do you mean by "sometimes" ?

> outputs an absolute path on Windows, but sometimes
> outputs a relative path on Wine.  This causes the

>    $ wine d:setup
> to fail to find its files properly if it uses the
> basename of argv[0].  One example of this is msvc4.0
> (although it only tries this if an earlier method fails,
> so there's another bug lurking).
