Hello;

One *very late* comment below ..

Some programs start with the path and command line arguments in
argv[0] (program_invocation_name). Chromium is an example of
an application using mesa that does this.

This tries to query the real path for the symbolic link /proc/self/exe
to find the program name instead. It only uses the realpath if it
was a prefix of the invocation to avoid breaking wine programs.

realpath allocates memory that we will leak, it's not much but just wanted to mention, it might be not trivial to fix since I guess not all variants of __getProgramName will allocate?
