Bug 1340: PATH specification has an ambiguity. Accepted as Marked
https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1340

An interpretation required.  This item is tagged for TC3-2008.

Interpretation response:
The standard is unclear on this issue, and no conformance distinction
can be made between alternative implementations based on this. This
is being referred to the sponsor.

Rationale:
The current text does not require constructed relative pathnames
to be resolved, only absolute ones.

Notes to the Editor (not part of this interpretation):
Make the changes in Note: 0004868
