As you probably know, /sw/src is used for two different purposes: storing
source files, and as a location for building packages.

The purposes can both be reassigned, with new directories specified by
running "fink configure".  You can reassign the two functions to two
different locations.

New downloads of source files will still go into /sw/src, though, so you
will need to move the contents of that directory to the "alternate"
directory from time to time.

This is indeed more robust than making a symlink.
