Yes, I'm subscribed. Well, I use to be the developer but the facts

If PortableApps needs a change to achieve portableness, it should be
submitted to the maintainers of the original program for inclusion in
the upstream(?) source.
We do have some special code about "binary relocation" for this I
believe, it was added before my time, but I think it might've broken
in the last release (1.25).
My current question though is, do you know it handles the case for the
GUI/Glade file that it loads on startup? If I understand correctly, we
hard-code the path to it at compile time, yet I'm able to freely move
the GeanyPortable folder around and it still loads fine.
Any info/tips would be appreciated.
Windows builds used to be binary relocatable by default since you can
chose the destination in the installer. With geany.glade that might be
broken.
The "binary relocation support" reported by configure applies to unix
builds only.
Best regards
