i'd rather make this work in oss-fuzz on cpython.  can you point me to how oss-fuzz works and what it wants to do so i can better understand what it needs?

it it has an expectation that the thing being fuzzed is a single binary with no data or directory tree layout dependencies that can just be plopped somewhere else is not a great assumption to make.

but environment variables _should_ be able to be set to point the python binary at what it needs if it must work that way.
