I don't wanna say relative paths are supported because the "openpkg" setUID
wrapper may change directory under certain circumstances. One case I know of is
that it changes to $HOME when $PWD becomes inaccessible, which can happen if an
instance manager has the current working directory on a NFS drive with the
usual root->nobody mapping and executes a command which requires root
privileges.

That said I also do not want to introduce artificial limitations. So I added
support for relative paths identified by "./" (no plans to add .. or "all but
leading /" detection).

Available with openpkg-tools-1.4.4, included with openpkg-20070302.
