Does it really contain _itself_? I think this would be wrong. Instead,
it should point to /usr, i.e. the directory containing the sym link.
Reading the subject of your mail, I guess that's the case for you, too.
But above you said otherwise ("pointing to itself")...
On my box, the X11R6 symlink in /usr points to /usr (recursive, thus,
like the 'boot' symlink in /boot).
Interesting. On mine, /usr/X11R6 is a directory, that contains a
symlink /usr/X11R6/X11R6 which points to /usr. I suspect this is
probably the same as the OP. I guess I need to take a close look at
baselayout to see how I got into this mess.
Cheers,
Richard
