If my reading of async.el is correct, it invoces the inferior Emacs
like this:

    (setq async--procvar
          (async-start-process
           "emacs" (file-truename
                    (expand-file-name invocation-name
                                      invocation-directory))
           finish-func
           async-quiet-switch "-l"
           ;; Using `locate-library' ensure we use the right file
           ;; when the .elc have been deleted.
           (locate-library "async")
           "-batch" "-f" "async-batch-invoke"
           (if async-send-over-pipe
               "<none>"
             (with-temp-buffer
               (async--insert-sexp (list 'quote sexp)) (buffer-string)))))

Thierry, what does the below yield in the interactive session from
which you invoke async-start?

  M-: (file-truename (expand-file-name invocation-name invocation-directory)) RET
