~Are there any kustomize gotchas? I'm passing an absolute path directory in and getting nil pointer panics in go.~

~Update: it doesnt appear to be an issue finding the directory because if I intentionally set a base in the kustomization.yaml that doesn't exists it gives me the expected error.~

Second update: it looks like the issue is that my customize was using the built in LabelTransfomer

the path is correct as I logged it, cd'd into it and ran a successful kustomize build

```        new k8s.kustomize.Directory(name, {
            directory: path.join(__dirname, 'kustomize'),
        }, localOpts)```

```  pulumi:pulumi:Stack (xxx):
    panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
    [signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x2 addr=0x18 pc=0x10346e5e0]

If I switch out the directory for a URL it works fine.
