I am using:

$helper->mk_app( $appname )  # this one works
...
$helper->mk_component (          # this one is where the problem is

i.e. I use the helper API.  Unfortunately this checks $FindBin::Bin -
so it can be only run by a script in the right place (and that place
does not exists before the app is created) or else it requires an ugly
hack.  What I would like to have is mk_component that would work
independently from where the binary is.

Cheers,
