ACK. 

That's why we were talking about the wrong stuff. 

The binary location itself is not what's wanted, instead a common
way for locating config files, datadirs, etc is wanted.

Therefore we should move to talk about a module which solves this
problem instead of wasting time for such side issues like binary locations.
