I'm not sure if i'm understanding you correctly, but if, by source, you
mean the scheme source, that'd be terrible news for tools such as
Geiser. With that in mind, i like Andy's proposal, and would even add a
way to control how the paths are printed in the debugger backtraces
(where one cannot call scheme functions as the one shown by Andy),
although perhaps that's already implicit in the proposal (and, anyway,
is not strictly necessary: i can implement the
relative->absolute-in-load-path mapping in elisp).
