Relative paths don't really work unless you specify somewhere what they are 
relative to (current dir isn't really a good option). For example, relative 
paths work in the apache config, because the config root is specified as 
/usr/lib/apache2/conf (which is a symlink to /etc/apache2).

With catalyst, there are so many paths that could be the "root" 
(/var/tmp/catalyst, /etc/catalyst, some random dir where you store your specs, 
etc.) that it just doesn't work.
