This one's been around for a while, but I'm reporting this on beta13.

I have been unpacking and building XEmacs betas in my home directory
(specifically under ~/src).  My configure script is attached.  I then
run XEmacs by invoking:

    % ~/src/xemacs-20.3-b13/src/xemacs -no-site-file -q

Then I type:

    M-: (documentation 'ring-insert) RET

and get the following error:

Cannot open doc string file "/home/bwarsaw/src/xemacs-20.3-b13/lib-src/../lisp/ring.elc"

I'll get it for other docstrings that kept as (file . pos) cons
cells.  Notice that the relative path that's appended to doc-directory 
is incorrect; it should be ../lisp/utils/ring.el (this problem is not
specific to ring.elc).
