I don't think we want to make all the links absolute ones. If we do that
then any tarball releases would have to be installed into exactly the
same directory to work.

I think we should use relative links normally, but absolute ones when
using GNOME2_PATH or pkg-config as a last resort, or when an absolute
directory is passed in with --extra-dir.
