Comment:

 At the dev meeting, atagar pointed out that this is a major annoyance for
 making arm actually work under some interesting circumstances.  Bumping to
 major.

 The only tricky part here will be making sure that we absolute-ify the
 filenames pretty early, in case we're daemonizing (which makes us chdir
 iirc)
