It appears that I'm partially wrong; sorry.

I always run things through symlinks from one big `/home/tweed/bin/'
directory so I never tried invoking a runhugs script through its actual
name; trying it now runhugs does actually look in the directory containing
the `calling name' for imports as you rightly say it ought to.
Unfortunately when that calling name is actually a symlink things don't
work, so in my case I do still have to ensure it gets the correct paths
:-( .
