In particular when the origin construct is in a header file (and

I had encountered similar frustrations in the past and had looked at a different solution to the problem.

At the moment, __FILE__ is absolute, (and redundant many times in the image, although I guess it should compress well).

I had investigated running a makefile rune to strip XEN_ROOT off $(abspath $<) and provide this as a __FILENAME__ macro, but I wasn't certain I had done it correctly.

This would cause a rather smaller data section and substantially less printed in each of these cases.  The only problem would then come if we end up with more than 50 characters below XEN_ROOT, which is substantially less likely
