Would it be worth it if libtool were to check if the shell's exec supports
the -a option, and if so, use that feature within the libtool wrapper so
that the invoked program is given the same argv[0] as the libtool wrapper
rather than an absolute path which exposes the different executable name
for uninstalled binaries?
