Subject: [PATCH] Frederic Bouvier: This patch is there to correct a problem
 that prevent to load static objects when specifying a relative fg-root or a
 different, relative, fg-scenery. It appears that there is a mix between
 fg-root, fg-scenery and PLIB's model-dir. It has been reported on the list
 that users are not able to see the buildings, especially those running the
 win32 builds because they run 'runfgfs.bat' that set FG_ROOT=./DATA.

I decided not to use model-dir because it just add confusion and to build a valid path earlier.
