This would be a modification for the upstream authors, however both seem
to have gone missing.

Unless someone else (who is reading this bug-report? :) wants to implement
this, I would suggest two strategies;

1. If using batch files, chdir to `dirname $sfvfile` and then back after
checking

2. I would recommend using "cfv" instead. It is much much more powerful,
but requires python installed which may be a problem if cksfv is used due
to its smaller size. [however, most people dealing with sfv-files seem to
have plenty of disk space available *grin*]
