Hi

I am trying to build JBOSS, JBOSS portal and a bunch of portlets, and 
run some tests.

I need a smart way of refering to directories that is not slave specific.

i dont want to write
env{"JBOSS_HOME":"/home/slave/jboss-slave/jboss-slave/build/jboss-build"}

I would like to be able to say
env{"JBOSS_HOME":"$SLAVE_ROOT/jboss-build"}

is there a way of refering to the 'slaves' build dir without knowing its 
path and hardcoding it on the master?
