Apologies: module.__file__, or inspect.getfile(module) only *gave* me
the relative file name, because the module was found in the current
directory! Changing the current directory, and having the module be
found thru the path, changed the returned path to an absolute
directory!
Hence the simplest form at hand was used. Thank you, python!
