[O] [PATCH] Fix for relative symlinks in subdirectories

[T.F. Torrey]

Hello all,

When publishing a project that contains relative symlinks in
subdirectories, org-publish-cache-ctime-of-src mistakenly connects the
true file name with the base-dir of the project instead of the symlink,
causing an error when the linked file is in a subdirectory and not the
base-dir.

The attached patch modifiies org-publish-cache-ctime-of-src to use the
dir of the current file as the base-dir instead of simply the project
base-dir.

With this change, though, the base-dir argument to this function now
never does anything. This doesn't seem to cause problems for me, but I
am far from intimate with the workings of the org-publish cache system.
Perhaps someone with better knowledge of the system could provide a
better fix. Otherwise, the base-dir argument could be refactored out.

ChangeLog entry: Fix for relative symlinks in subdirectories

Modify org-publish-cache-ctime-of-src to use the dir of the current file
as the base-dir instead of simply the project base-dir.
