That gives you a bit of a catch-22 situation.  The ~System/initd.c is
the first non-kernel object to be loaded, and its task is to load
whatever else is necessary for your particular game/mud/lib.

The only way around using a hardcoded path would be by making it a
define that the kernel-lib finds in /include/config.h or so, but that
is up to Dworkin.
