[syslinux] SYSLINUX current directory and the config file

Hi all,
I have looked a bit at what it would take to make the SYSLINUX current
directory settable when loading a new configuration file with the CONFIG
directive.
I have come to the conclusion that it would be a lot less invasive to
simply maintain the rule that the current working directory is the one
where the config file lives, *including* one loaded via the CONFIG
directive.
The obvious exception to this would be the initially loaded PXELINUX
configuration file. If there are ideas how better to handle the
PXELINUX case I would appreciate hearing them.
Would this be sufficient for people, or would everyone prefer the
full-blown solution? That would probably have to wait until post-3.50
just due to the invasiveness of some of the changes.
