I looked at that patch again and it appears totally wrong!  It looks
like this totally defeats the feature of searching exec-path.  So I
just made this change:

*** process.c	1995/07/17 22:21:21	1.163
--- process.c	1995/07/25 01:41:21
***************
*** 1080,1087 ****
  #else /* not VMS */
    new_argv = (unsigned char **) alloca ((nargs - 1) * sizeof (char *));
  
-   program = Fexpand_file_name (program, Qnil);
- 
    /* If program file name is not absolute, search our path for it */
    if (!IS_DIRECTORY_SEP (XSTRING (program)->data[0])
        && !(XSTRING (program)->size > 1
--- 1080,1085 ----
***************
*** 1095,1100 ****
--- 1093,1099 ----
        UNGCPRO;
        if (NILP (tem))
  	report_file_error ("Searching for program", Fcons (program, Qnil));
+       tem = Fexpand_file_name (tem, Qnil);
        new_argv[0] = XSTRING (tem)->data;
      }
    else
