This is not good enough in my environment. I run git-gui effectivly with

   wish $prefix/libexec/git-core/git-gui

(and I have $PATH set up to contain $bindir, but not $gitexecdir), and this
needs the original hunk with the three [file dirname ... ], because $argv0
points to $prefix/libexec/git-core/git-gui.

I thought I understood what's going on, but I don't anymore.

Mybe the relative discovery of oguilib must be conditional on the "git-core"
part as well, just like you discover sharedir?
