BTW: Linux has /proc/self/, too (which saves the |sprintf()| call) - but
we need a "iffe" probe to test for the exact location:
- Linux uses /proc/self/exe
- Solaris uses /proc/self/path/a.out
- FreeBSD/DragonFlyBSD uses /proc/curproc/file (per
http://www.gsp.com/cgi-bin/man.cgi?section=5&topic=procfs)
|getexecname()| may not be usefull since it returns a relative path and
not an abolute one and http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=686876 says
"... One ugly problem with getexecname on Solaris 8 is that it doesn't
make a distinction between an executable script and its associated
interpreter invoked via the shebang line ...".
