<pre>I tried actually tracing some of the code in the backtraces, but my line
numbers don't match up. The big one that I don't find in argparse.py at all but
is there in the trace is:
default = self._get_value(action, default)
Which... seems disastrous -- the default is 'gl_API.xml', but it's in
who-knows-what-directory. This happens to work for in-tree builds due to...
luck. However it won't work for out-of-tree builds. The solution is probably to
get rid of the default, or to make the "type" more forgiving about missing
files.</pre>
