#5935: Database should not contain absolute pathnames

 The filenames for attachments are stored as absolute pathnames in the
 database. This makes it impossible or at least very hard to move a
 wordpress database and associated files to a different host. In my opinion
 pathnames should be stored e.g. relative to the wordpress directory.
