AFAIK those all use an absolute path.  We don't depend on finding ourself
in the PATH.  I frequently run "cmake" via an absolute path without any
"cmake" in the PATH.  I also frequently run "cmake" via an alias of a
different name with a different version of "cmake" in the PATH.

If you find places where this is not true then we can fix those, but
I run cmake this way every day since I keep so many versions around
for testing.
