You are correct, this is the code
if (systemId.startsWith("file:")) {
String path = FILE_UTILS.fromURI(systemId);
File file = new File(path);
if (!file.isAbsolute()) {
file = FILE_UTILS.resolveFile(context.getBuildFileParent(),
path);
}
so relative file: URIs get resolved relative to the build file, not
relative to basedir.
Thanks for correcting me.
