Hi Eric,
yes, I can do SHA, but on the real file contents only! That's why I hate soft
links! because everything may stay the same, but a change of where a soft link
points to is undetectable and U get different results of subsequent compiles. I
probably will go brute force and set restrictive unix permissions on a different
user and group ownership.

You can do SHA on symlink contents, by using readlink on those symlinks. Your claim that symlink changes are undetectable is bogus.
