With "entityref", the filepath is obtained with the unparsed-entity-uri() function, which always returns an absolute URI with Saxon and Xalan. With xsltproc (libxslt 1.1.8), it is relative if the SYSTEM identifier is relative.  

According to the XSLT 1.0 specification, the behaviour of Saxon and Xalan is the correct one: 
"if the system identifier is a relative URI, it must be resolved into an absolute URI using the URI of the resource containing the entity declaration as the base URI" (http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#unparsed-entities).
