I'm not sure that the user would like to give a path relative to the Sozi installation path. The sozi-path 
should be the installation path to the Sozi player that will probably be independent of the Dia path.

For instance : ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-sozi-path=/home/work/sozi/build/player

Do you think that we should constrain the user to put the Sozi player files in a plugin subdirectory of the 
Dia installation path ?

In this case, I remove the configure option, the code checks in the Dia installation path the player files, 
and it fallbacks to the internal player if they are not present.

What is your suggestion ?
