Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
gucharmap could not be built reproducibly.

This is because it includes the absolute build path in the generated
gucharmap-type-builtins.h file:

- /* enumerations from "/build/1st/gucharmap-13.0.1/obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/../gucharmap/gucharmap-charmap.h" */
+ /* enumerations from "/build/2/gucharmap-13.0.1/2nd/obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/../gucharmap/gucharmap-charmap.h" */

Patch attached that also makes the parralel change to the .c file,
even though this does not make a difference to the build but it feels
like the right thing to do.
