I expect a relative file name there will be interpreted relative to the 
directory containing the source file which is not what we want, and an 
absolute file name would work only if everybody puts their source 
directory at the same localtion ("/home/rms/src/emacs/master", say).

We could establish an extended interpretation for that variable, e.g., 
"./ChangeLog" would be relative to the directory containing the 
.dir-locals.el file, but I assume that'd require a change to the code.
