Comment (by Jeff Triplett):
Apologies if my note/solution distracted anyone from the original bug
report. What was throwing us off is that it seems like `path.absolute()`
will never raise an `FileNotFoundError` error.
```
> from pathlib import Path
> path = Path("i-do-not-exist.nope")
> path.absolute()
> PosixPath('/app/i-do-not-exist.nope')
```
I see your note about permissions, but I'm kind of surprised this code
does anything.
