We typically use launcher scripts/tools that add the right thing to the
PATH and then invoke the real program.  This is often done on UNIX systems
too because an application that comes as a binary in a tarball and uses
shared libraries needs a launcher to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running
the real binary.  Otherwise the tree is not relocatable.
