Dojo 1.9: Node.js relative path issue

I am having trouble using the Dojo Toolkit with NodeJS when it comes to requiring a relative standard node.js file:

I have the following directory

node-stuff
  start-server.js
  source
    dojo
    app-client
    app-common
    app-server
      lib
        http-server.js
      routes
        index.js
      server-config.js
      server.js

I use the start-server.js file to bootstrap the dojo toolkit:

dojoConfig = require('./source/app-server/server-config');
require("./source/dojo/dojo.js");

This loads the server configuration file that contains the dojoConfig information

module.exports = {
    baseUrl: 'source/',
    async: true,
    packages: [
        {
            name: 'dojo',
            location: 'dojo'
        },
        {
            name: 'app-server',
            location: 'app-server'
        },
        {
            name: 'app-client',
            location: 'app-client'
        },
        {
            name: 'app-common',
            location: 'app-common'
        }
    ],
    deps: [
        "source/app-server/server.js"
    ]
};

Inside of my http-server.js file, I am trying to use the following node require:

define([
  "dojo/node!express", //works OK
  "dojo/node!path", //works OK
  "app-common/roots", //works OK
  "dojo/node!../routes/index"] //this last one has the following error message

The error message produced

"C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" start-server.js

module.js:340
    throw err;
          ^

    at resolvePluginLoadQ (C:\Users\james_000\RubymineProjects\node-stuff\source\dojo\dojo.js:1129:4)

I have tried getting the latest version of node off of the Dojo Github. That changed the error line from

Cannot find module 'source\app-server\routes\index'

to

Cannot find module 'app-server\routes\index'

Is this a bug here, or am I doing something wrong?

I'm wondering if the problem is that the dojo/node! is always coercing the path to be source/app-server/routes/index instead of ./source/app-server/routes/index. If I put the source/app-server/routes folder in the node_modules folder, then it works fine. It doesn't seem to like relative file paths that are not inside of that folder.

EDIT: I tested the above, and it was not correct.
