The pool_passwd option [1] is specified relative to config file. But for greater flexibility absolute path should be accepted as well.

If pool_passwd option starts with /, let's treat it as absolute path. Otherwise, it is treated as relative path.

Patch attached. Original author - Derek Kulinski [2]. In NixOS, configuration files often end up in world readable store, which is not the best place for storing password files.
