I am happy you are nearly the only one to ever have complained about
that :) that being said, trunk doesnt do this anymore, new glade will
let you put absolute or relative paths, and give you a project option
to specify where to load the basename from when running glade.

I really wish you could try this and file a bug if we need one, glade
files should be portable and load path strings in a portable way.
