Hi,
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
mfem could not be built reproducibly.
This was because it embedded the absolute build path in various .cmake
and C++ header/configuration files. As the paths these files reference
do not need to exist at runtime, it is safe to replace them with a
static alternative, which is what the attached patch does.
