absolute path or relative path

HI all,
when I run mapreduce program, I find a tricky thing about the input and output path. The input path I give is absolute path (e.g. /user/user1/input/*, assume I am user1) and it works well. The output path I give is also absolute path (e.g. /user/user1/output/). But the final result was output to the path /user/user1/user/user1/output/part-00000. Does that mean hadoop regards the input path as an absolute path while regards the output path as a relative path?

Thanks!
