Actually, it is not so trivial, argv[0] contain the absolute Path only
if you launch the binary with the absolute path in your shell.
Otherwise, if the binary is somewhere in $PATH and you launch it this
way:
$ binary

Then argv[0] contain only "binary".
This is the case at least under any unix like.
