Thanks so much for looking at that. I was trying to get started writing
some unit test cases around this so I could submit them back here. I note
that 69 tests fail in version [2186f0f0e7] (see below). Though it seems
pretty unlikely (from their names) that your symlink changes caused this.

In any case, the three scenarios I am personally aware of behave as
expected now. Thanks again!
For completeness, Warren Young seems to be complaining about Fossil's path
resolution logic when symlinks are present. This is (from my perspective)
a very different issue, but you nevertheless may want to track it. Also, I
did not read every detail in the thread ("xkcd on git") that led to this
subtopic, so perhaps people aired other symlink-related complaints there.
