When you create a cscope database (or symbol cross-reference) by
just running "cscope -R" in some directory, the database will
contain the names of files relative to that directory. That is a
problem if vim is using a different current directory when it
accesses the database.

One solution is to give the name of the directory in which cscope
was run to the ":cs add" command as the "pre-path" argument. See
":help E563".

Another solution is to give cscope a list of the files it is to
search when it builds its database, and use the full path names to
the files in that list. You can easily build such a list using the
find command.
