I always thought that that is already in ones include path (by default). My compilers have always found such files.

Some compilers treat the "Current Working Directory" as the directory
of the file currently being processed, not the base directory of the
Project or the top level file being compiled. 

The Standard says nothing about directories or "Current Directories",
leaving this up to the implementation.
