Bug in path.c

The path mangling code does the wrong thing when the prefix doesn't exist.
For example path("/.") still returns "/usr/gnemul/qemu-arm", even if the latter doesn't exist (commonly the case when using a chroot).

Patch below fixes this by setting base to NULL if the prefix contains no files.
