The paths are, as you probably found out, relative to the current 
working directory.  Since the path of the current script is not exposed 
as a variable or something like that in psql, I don't think you can do 
any computations within psql to achieve what you want.  Others may have 
ideas how you can organize your scripts differently, though.
