`argv[0]`/`getexexname()` are not always absolute paths by default and can be modified to anything the developer wants them to be.
Consider using `readSymLink("/proc/self/path/a.out")` instead and `getexecname()` as the fallback, since the symlink will always be the correct absolute path (unless /proc is ot mounted, but it is by default on Solaris and Illumos platforms).
