using relative path instead of $FITS_HOME/path in xml/nlnz/config.xml & in XSLT when for xml/fits_output.xsd

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1) XSLT is used to convert each tools output into the FITS XML format. When
it does this it's using the relative path "xml/fits_output.xsd" as the
schema location, without the FITS_HOME variable.  From a current directory
other then FITS_HOME, the schema cannot be found, so the FITS XML output
cannot be validated and the 'invalid fits xml output' messages are displayed.
--> workaround = disable validate-tool-output in xml/fits.xml

2) A similar thing is happening to NLNZ.  In xml/nlnz/config.xml the
<xml-location> is set to "xml/nlnz"- another relative path.  
--> workaround = set this to $CURDIR/xml/nlnz (i.e. absolute path)

The workaround I found was to set user.dir to the FITS home absolute path:
System.setProperty("user.dir", new File(Fits.FITS_HOME).getAbsolutePath());
This isn't currently an issue however it could become an annoying constraint.

yes, I guess that would work. However, changing user.dir is, as you said, an 
annoying
constraint as I'm already using user.dir for others things...
