Not that I know of. For one thing, in general there's no such thing
as "the" relative path; typically there are multiple relative paths to
to the same destination. Anyway, if the installer specifies an
absolute path, why would you want to use a relative one?
If you want a relative path, then you can specify it as the installer,
by running "../configure" rather than "/source/build/../configure".
