Relative paths are not possible with file://. It may have been possible
before, (more or less by accident) but over recent years we've worked on
making sure curl A) acts more similar to browsers on the same input and B)
doesn't trick users into getting something they didn't expect.

You can still get something based on the current directory by inserting it
yourself into the URL, like reading README from current directory:

   curl file://`pwd`/README
