I'm very surprised that this is even allowed. Apparently it's Linux userspace that normally complains about it: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/lib/progname.c#n54

The manpages just say

```
   v - execv(), execvp(), execvpe()
The char *const argv[] argument is an array of pointers to null-terminated strings that represent the argument list available to the new program. The first argument, by convention, should point to the filename associated with the file being executed. The array of pointers must be terminated by
       a null pointer.
```

With nothing to the contrary, I'd take "must be terminated by a null pointer" as "can't itself be a null pointer".

On OpenBSD this fails outright:

```
RET   execve -1 errno 14 Bad address
```

You can get `execv` from `core.sys.posix.unistd`
