Pedro: David and Nick are proposing initializing sys.argv to [] rather than [''] for embedded interpreters. This would say 'running embedded'. The .argv entry would need an additional sentence. I like Nick's proposal, except that _xoptions should be {}. Documenting absence should only be a fallback is there is no sensible default.
