Hmm, perhaps there are some weird side-effects in my environment,
but:

1> file:make_dir("tmp").
ok
2> file:make_dir("tmp/cnh2").
ok
3> file:make_dir("tmp/cnh2/priv").
ok
4> code:add_path("tmp/cnh2").
true
5> code:priv_dir(cnh2).
"tmp/cnh2/priv"

It certainly does work for me.
I consider this to be more or less a bug anyway(*), and will
not complain if it suddenly stops working.

(*) until someone explains how the above behaviour is actually
a feature.
