That is contradicting.  I think that whatever you tried, once you let 
rev-parse --git-dir return only absolute paths, you already risked 
breakage.

Besides, I remember that Junio specifically requested that I would _not_ 
do something like that (this was for --show-cdup, but I think it really 
applies here, too).

I do not see the problem.  And therefore I do not see that this patch 
solves anything.
