I think it will use the $HOME directory as the work directory since the program installation directory is usually not writable and thus not a good base path. An application intended to be copied into a data set and run there will usually get the path itself through using the operating system API for that. (actually even a program working with separated data can do that if it wants to read things like default configuration from its installation directory) Which program are you trying to run and what kind of files doesn't it find?
