maybe that's correct but the whole code around here needs rewrite.

how about changing the whole chunk with (untested):

    prog = av_strdup(my_program_name);
    dirname = av_dirname(prog);
    pathname = *dirname ? av_asprintf("%s/%s", dirname, "ffmpeg")
                        : av_asprintf("ffmpeg")
    av_free(filepath);
