That's already the case.  Actually, sys.path[0] is *always* the absolute
path of the script directory -- regardless of whether you invoked the
script by a relative path or an absolute one, and regardless of whether
you're importing 'site' -- at least on Linux and Cygwin and WIndows, for
all Python versions I've used regularly, and 3.2 besides.

It isn't the value of cwd unless you happen to run a script from the same
directory as the script itself.  But even then, it's absolute, and not an
empty string: the empty string is only present for interactive sessions.
