    Many pieces of code use concat instead of expand-file-name.  90% of them
    should use expand-file-name instead, but the rest can't because it's
    important to keep the result non-absolute.

It would be good to add explicit comments at the places that need to
keep the result non-absolute (and to change the others to use
expand-file-name).
