Fix bug: empty string considered as $PWD
Before, if the program was run with only a source argument, that has no destination associated (e.g. in the configuration file), the destination was accepted as the empty string, which translated to the local directory (due to relative adressing). This was due to the shell option nullglob, which now is unset in any situations where `test -v' is used, which currently is only the case in get_args. It is `test -v' that failed to recognize an undefined variable.
