I liked the simplicity of the with-temp-buffer solution, but it doesn't
solve the conceptual problem: that any code trying to let-bind
default-directory around the call for xref-show-xrefs will have
rediscover and solve this problem (or, more likely, live with it for a
few years until somebody notices).
The timer-based solution is hacky, but it affects only one place (the
xref buffer and the variable in it), so it's easier to verify that it
has the intended effect, and no external callers will need to bother
with additional knowledge (hopefully, of course).
