Here's my attempt at making this work, which internally prefixes file paths with "./" when they truly are relative to the current directory and should not be looked up in the search path. Hopefully this applies without much trouble to Texinfo 6.0. It would be great if people would test this patch and post if it works, then we should be able to amend this patch if necessary and get an acceptable fix.
