Research direction
Examine the previous fix in commit b3798df to understand the intended change. Check if the replacement logic for 'base' and 'absolute' paths in reporter output is still flawed. Look at the relevant reporter source files (e.g., base.js or similar) and compare with the commit. Reproduce the issue with a simple config to verify the bug persists. Consider whether the fix only addressed part of the problem or introduced a new edge case.
