Yes, but when does it make sense to have FILE not absolute and not
just a basename (i.e. with leading directories)? Do we have such use
cases? Because if that happens, the file's name will be added to
.cvsignore not in DIRECTORY but in one of its subdirectories. Would
that be surprising? And if so, perhaps we should warn about that or
even error out?
