When there are relative paths in the load-path, `include-from-path'
seems to always interpret them relative to the directory of the file in
which the `include-from-path' is called, instead of relative to the
current working directory in effect when Guile is started.

Is this behavior desired? I would say not, because when passing "-L ."
to guile, one expects the current directory to be added to the load
path, not some symbolic "current directory" whose true value changes
dynamically. (Well, I could understand if there were an explicit
`chdir' call, though even then I think the "." would ideally be
evaluated once at startup, if possible.)

Indeed, good catch. Fixed in master. I don't know if we can fix in
2.0.
