The "get_absolute_path" function removes any parent references, if exists, in
the path
But the "make_absolute_path" doesn't. In this patch proper path is required to
compare
The xlog and data directories provided are same or not?
I find two ways to do this
1. change to that provided directory and get the current working directory.
2. Write a function to remove the parent references in the path.
This patch has implemented the first approach. Please let me know your
suggestions.

Hari babu.
