While it's not really a solve-all, you can use g_win32_get_package_installation_directory_of_module(NULL) on Windows to get the application's install path (Which can sometimes be not fully what you need if you have a path like: "C:\Program Files\my_app\bin", which would give "C:\Program Files\my_app"
There's also g_find_program_in_path(), but, as far as I know, there's no functionality yet implemented in GLib to grab the full path that was called.
