When I first wrote this I thought, "$(dirname foo) == '.', so it should
be okay", but it slipped my mind that $(dirname foo/bar) != "./foo" --
I like this new version better.

The leading ./ shoudln't make a difference but I also don't want
to have to think about it either.  I'll have a v2 patch shortly.
