Hi Giovanni,

thanks for your comments.

A few months ago we had a bug report about possible security issue with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH being relative.

My thinking was to check other paths manipulated in loader and make them
absolute too (probably other possible issues).

Today I tested the following code and it fails if sys.path is not
absolute:

---
import os
import sys

print os.getcwdu()
print sys.path
print 60 * '-'

os.chdir('/tmp')
import datetime

print os.getcwdu()
print sys.path
print 60 * '-'
---

I'll add more comments there.
