file-name-sans-extension returns an absolute file name when given a
relative path, whereas file-name-sans-versions returns a relative file
name (as it should):

;; This buffer is for notes you don't want to save, and for Lisp evaluation.
;; If you want to create a file, visit that file with C-x C-f,
;; then enter the text in that file's own buffer.

(file-name-sans-extension "abc.xyz")
"abc"                                   ; OK

(file-name-sans-extension "foo/abc.xyz")
