I remember now why this is an absolute link.

The documentation for the library is split between two places:  wwwdocs
and the source tree.  Things that rarely change (including the homepage)
are in wwwdocs.  Things that change often, such as these pages, are in
the source tree.

For pages in the source tree to link to pages in wwwdocs, all we can use
is an absolute link... I think.  Ideas?

(Some of the source tree pages link back to "the top documentation page,"
documentation.html, also in the source tree.)
