   This issue is old but still valid.
   
   One addition, though: as mentioned in the original description, the report 
may contain a local path lile 
`D:\Rickys\Java\checkstyleWorkspaceEclipse\contribution\checkstyle-tester\my_check.xml`.
 This exposes information from the developers build-system, which is a (minor?) 
security issue. If a rulefile is reffered to at all, it should IMHO not contain 
the absolute path but only the name. The complete path won't help anyone else 
beside a potential attacker.
