Hmm... as a quick hack for now, you can place 
    sys.argv = [guipath]
into your ~/.jpilot/python/jpilot_user.py , just above "import
jppygui" and just after "guipath = ..."

I really should have the build system substitute right into the script
the path for this file, rather than trying to work it out at runtime I
think...
