Like this:

  Step 1: provide an API for the executable to tell that; failing that
  Step 2: look in ../share relative to the executable's argv[0]; finally
  Step 3: fall back on the default recorded at build time

Step 2 will have a Windows wrinkle, whereby we can look in ..share
relative to where Guile's shared library lives.
