[erlang-questions] Setting the proper source in a module compiled via compile:forms

Hello everyone,

I am using compile:forms() to compile some forms and return me the binary.
After I load the binary, I can access my code as expected, except the
mymodule:module_info(:compile) returns the wrong source:

> mymodule:module_info(compile)
[{options,[]},{version,"4.8"},{source,"/Users/jose/Work"}]

It seems it is returning my PWD as source. To fix the issue, I have already
tried:

-compile([{source,"real/path"}]).
-file("real/path").

And passing a source option to compile:forms(). None of those worked.
Does anyone know if there an attribute/option I can pass so Erlang will
return the proper source?

Thanks in advance,
