Damn, I'm really sorry about that! This should have been prevented by pull request #41 (commit a2be86b9b1e04b233fe2477647ed5a747743a9db) about 3 years ago... I imagine this might be something to do with...

This really shouldn't be happening, I'm thinking perhaps something strange about relative/absolute paths? If you're willing, do you think you could download and run this [script](https://gist.github.com/mountainpenguin/8ce4673e295a0fb47b59566533dd6dec) and paste the output?...
