You have to include some specific examples in your email.
Show us a symlink that doesn't work, and one that does.
Are just absolute symlinks or just relative symlinks
broken?

Do "ls -l LINKNAME | od -c" to see if there are any extraneous
characters in the symlink.  Also do "ls -lL LINKNAME" to see
if the target file exists.
