Actually I take this back. You are doing what I originally
suggested you do, which is correct.  Looking in $PATH would
be wrong since it might find a proxy that's from a different
version of QEMU. We do need to take account of fact that
QEMU might be in $prefix/libexec, instead of $prefix/bin.

Also Unfortunately dirname is not thread-safe since it can
return a statically allocated string - which must not
be free()d, so we can't use that.

So I think I'd build the path slightly differently:

  char *tmp, *prefix;
  if (!(prefix = strdup(emulator))) {
     virReportOOMError();
     return -1;
  }
  if (tmp = strstr(prefix, "/bin/") ||
      tmp = strstr(prefix, "/libexec/") {
    *tmp = '\0';
  } else {
     virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR,
                   _("Unable to determine prefix from %s"),
                    emulator);
     VIR_FREE(prefix);
  }
  if (virAsprintf(&path, "%s/bin/" HELPER, prefix) < 0) {
     VIR_FREE(prefix);
     return -1;
  }
  VIR_FREE(prefix);
