Public bug reported:

dnsmasq does in all cases prepend "tftp_root" to tftp-files.

tftp-root=/data/tftp
dhcp-boot=grub/i386-pc/core.0

now have some config files for different subnets:
dhcp-boot=net:172-18-1,grub/i386-pc/core.0,172.18.1.1
dhcp-boot=net:172-18-8,pxelinux.0,172.18.8.1
dhcp-boot=net:172-18-7,/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0,spacewalk-ber.bfs.de

Now booting clients within subnet 172.18.1.0/24 will boot grub with:
/data/tftp/grub/i386-pc/core.0

Booting clients within subnet 172.18.2.0/24 will boot pxelinux.0 with:
/data/tftp/pxelinux.0

And in subnet 172.18.7.0/24 clients will boot with:
/data/tftp/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0

and return a "File not found" error.

I'd expected:
172.18.1: grub/i386-pc/core.0           (file found within /data/tftp -- 
without exposing path)
172.18.2: pxelinux.0                    (file found within /data/tftp -- 
without exposing path)
172.18.3: /pxelinux.0                   (file found within /)
172.18.7: /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0  (file found within 
/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0)

or even better: some way to set tftp-root for every subnet-config and
having only relative paths to access files regardless of giving absolute
or relative paths.
