There is a problem when scidExecutable points to a symlink with a relative
path, scidExeDir is set to a relative path and Scid can't find neither books or
bases, at least under mac.
The patch at the bottom fixes the issue, but I couldn't reproduce other cases
when scidExecutable points to a symlink.
