Yes, you are right, it may or may not be absolute.

Personally I don't see a problem, since '$srcdir' is single quoted, so
that it gets expanded only in src/Makefile, as Andreas said.

But there are too many emails of supposition, and AFAICS still no clear
bug report, so I dunno.

And none of this affects Emacs releases anyway, so it has zero relevance
to 24.4 and is not worth spending time on now.
