Been there, done that. Both my toybox and Firmware Linux projects do this.
In FWL it's line 115 of this file:

It's essentially the logic of the command line "which" utility applied to
argv[0]. If argv[0] has a relative or absolute path, then it's vs cwd (this
has to happen when you first run the program, before you cd). If argv[0] has
no path then look at $PATH.
