Testing the configuration

Since the top configuration file, at least in the examples I have, gives
absolute paths to the other config files it specifies, it makes it hard to
test a configuration before putting it into production (short of a
separate test system, perhaps a virtual one).  Are those absolute paths
needed?  The doc gives examples showing absolute paths, and doesn't talk
about what a relative path would mean (but doesn't say it's forbidden,
either).  Are relative paths allowed?  Can we predict what they'd be
relative to?

Running Nagios 2.10 (due to Centos 5 packaging).
