Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment:

It's surprisingly difficult to get right because tests will fail if you keep 
the path relative in other situations (such as test_cmd_line_script). It was an 
absolute pain to get it to where it is now. If you can make it keep the 
relative path and pass the test then that's great, but relative file paths suck 
for compatibility and I don't think they are that useful to begin with.
