[issue7774] sys.executable: wrong location if zeroth command argument is modified.

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

getpath.patch: another patch written by flox. If argv[0] is set to a non existent program name, sys.executable is set to an empty string instead of a directory name.

Example of the bug with Python 2.5:

$ sh -c "exec -a xxx python -c 'import sys, os; print repr(sys.executable), repr(os.getcwd())'"
'/home/haypo/' '/home/haypo'
