Actually this is not directly related to symbolic links, but more how a path is resolved (there might be similar problems if one mounts some FS over a versioned directory, though I assume that this is highly discouraged). I would say that a path without a peg revision should follow the usual path resolution mechanism (as described in the path_resolution(7) man page). Paths with peg revision are special and could be seen as some form of relative URL's. Even the current behavior is poorly specified.
