Now that I think about it, we already had an open issue with tsearch2,
which is that the way it's doing this, a relocatable installation is
impossible.

I think the most reasonable fix is to change the readstoplist() function
so that it will accept relative paths and interpret them as relative to
the "share" directory (which is $datadir as seen by the Makefiles; we
can get the correct runtime location from get_share_path).  Then we can
just put "contrib/english.stop" into the pg_ts_dict entry and not have
to interpolate any build-time path at all.

Will see about doing this.
