Hi,
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that bro could not be built reproducibly.
This is because the .bro files contain the absolute build path. Patch
attached that removes $(CURDIR) from the file.
(I initially tried to make an upstream-friendly patch against the
generation utility itself but I found it difficult and cumbersome to
retain the relevant "leading/path/components/file.bro" whilst removing
the absolute component)
