@matejk see if we can squeeze this into 1.13. (needs to be properly tested on all major platforms; if not, push to 1.14

Just as curiosity:

GNU provides simpler way to get program name if _GNU_SOURCE is defined through a constant C string:

       extern char *program_invocation_name;
       extern char *program_invocation_short_name;

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/program_invocation_name.3.html

Linux, macOS and BSD also feature getprogname: https://www.unix.com/man-page/netbsd/3/getprogname/

On Windows, there is also __argv[0].
