[PD] [pd open $1 $2{ from relative path without getdir

[me.grimm]

I was just looking at romans old post:

http://www.mail-archive.com/pd-list@iem.at/msg04869.html

did this ever get fixed? In the help->pd help browser->pd
msg->msg_and_pd->open_close.pd i see:

"Sometimes you can get relative paths (./, ../, etc.) to work, but
usually not. I don't know why..."

the example under it uses [getdir]

there is no vanilla [getdir] right? and i was assuming the manual
example above was a vanilla example...

IDK basically im trying to have a vanilla way to do [pd open $1 $2{
and have $2 relative to where ever my patch is sitting.

but maybe im easily missing the obvious something that was addressed
since romans 2007 post...
