Bug ID: 56375
           Summary: execl does not work like in windows.
           Product: Wine-gecko
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-gecko-unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Something that bothers me since many time ago is that when you develop Windows
applications in Linux testing in Wine a common pitfall is that execl won't work
equal so a perfectly working program in wine won't work at all in windows.

I do not know why in wine execl will search path and it is more permissive with
the contents of the second argument while in windows it only allows relative or
absolute paths and the second argument must have a correct content.

Is there something that can be done?
