In Lepton, and just in this case, you can use

`(source-library "${NETLIST_PATH}/anything...)` commands in gafrc.

Probably, you can do the same in geda-gaf.

I've just fixed my buggy source-library-search() for expanding env
variables, though the fix is not yet in repository.  This command
can be used to add directories to source library recursively, that
is, with all their non-empty subdirs.  If any of those commands is
present in your gafrc, you don't have to use absolute paths.  Just
'file=cirname.cir' is sufficient for lepton-netlist and others
utilities could find the files.
