When I insert .sxw documents into a master document, the file links recorded
are absolute.  This causes me problems, as I alternate between a Linux machine
and a Windows platform and I do not have my working tree in the same place on
each machine (the left end of the file path is different).

Checking/unchecking "relative to filesystem" and/or "relative to internet" in
options does not appear to make a difference.  I have looked into the .sxg file 
and verified the link is stored with an absolute path.

The 2.0Beta seems to be able to save files with relative paths (at least the
content.xml has a relative path), however it crashes on a different aspect of my
document preventing me from using that version (I'll file a bug report on that
crash when I can put together a testcase).

Recreating it is simple:
1. Create a .sxw file in a directory
2. Create a master document in the parent of that directory
3. Insert the file from (1) into the master document
4. Save the master document.
5. Examine content.xml:

<text:section-source
xlink:href="file:///C:/cygwin/home/ryan/work/amu_fpga/Documentation/01-Device_Name/name_dir.sxw"
text:filter-name="StarOffice XML (Writer)"/>

When I copy the tree to another machine (using rsync or windows file manager
doesn't matter) I open it and update links, the link is broken (red) because the
absolute file path doesn't apply (everything to the left of "ryan" is 
different).


This is similar to issues #2948, #25985 and #16824 (the advice given in #16824
has no effect).
