I also tried to check if os.stat(main.file).stuid == os.getuid() but the real main is not available in site.py. It's loaded and assigned much later. Is sys.argv[0] available at that point?

No, it's not available, too. The 'site' module is imported by Py_Initialize(). sys.argv and the real main module are set much later in Modules/main.c.
