------------------------------------------
Can be a problem on live upgrades. Say you are changing the target
behind the symlink.

> We've got a problem with automatic compaction not running due to low
> diskspace according to CouchDB. According to our system administrators there
> is more than enough space (more than twice the currently used space), but the
> data directory is a symlink to the real data storage. It seems CouchDB is
> checking the diskspace on the filesystem on which the symlink resides instead
> of the diskspace on the linked filesystem.
