Do you mean the output-files generic function?  Gary suggested that to
me in a conversation, but I believed after looking at the source that
the pathname in the component passed to it has already been resolved.
Are you saying this is not the case?

Also, I didn't like the solution of having to provide a definition of
this method along with an asd file.  It seems like a hack.
