Okay, is there a specific reason for this, that you would care to share
?
(I mean, at first glance it doesn't look very obvious, does it ???)
Even then, shouldn't there be a difference between _hard_ links (where
AFAIK there are use counters to maintain) and _symbolic_ links, where
there are no such counters so you can safely clear the inode every time
?
Thanks anyway.
