I agree with the last statement, but in this case, leaving the const off the declaration results in a compiler warning about discarding the inherent const qualifier from a literal string. A *very* quick look in src/*.c doesn't reveal any other examples of all-literal argv[] lists like this. I'm inclined to leave the const and the cast, but if you have a better suggestion, I'll be glad to make the change.
