There was a problem hiding this comment.
This caused the explained issue. argv[0] may be a valid relative path (seen from $($pwd)), but it is not valid when --with-build-dir= drops the generated build files somewhere else and paths in there are relative to whatever argv[0] was.

Rebased to master (to resolve a conflict with #4336). |

Turns out that listing all the object files with their absolute path can overwhelm Windows' upper limit on command lengths. I'll have a look into that as soon as I can. |
This allows using the cmake-ish flow of `mkdir build && cd build && ../configure.py` resulting in all build artefacts being dropped in build or build/build respectively.

Description
Running
./configure.py --with-build-dir=mybuilddidn't work properly, because it produced a Makefile/ninja.build with paths relative to the base-directory of theconfigure.pyinvocation (i.e.argv[0]). It did work when invoking it like that:$(pwd)/configure.py --with-build-dir=mybuild.The idea behind this patch is to always produce absolute paths in the Makefile/ninja.build. As a side effect, this allows us to remove a mingw workaround. Also, I cleaned up the ninja.build of
botan_bogo_shimandbotan_ct_selftestthat both dropped their intermediate object files in the top-level build directory.Closes #4232
Closes #4342
