I think this is overkill for that one line since we're just joining a path 
to a filename.  Theoretically, the absolute_path should look the same 
every time it comes into that section.  If the absolute_path doesn't look 
the same, then I think we have a different issue we need to solve 
elsewhere.

We're looking into it.
