So I _could_ detect that a different invocation path has been taken, but
I think it would be rather cumbersome and system specific (e.g.: what if
I changed the path where the Lua interpreter resides?)

Not very clean, but... there is a slash-backslash difference in the last part of the path (forward slashes cannot be used when a Windows console is involved).
