That is a reasonable/realistic assumption, but symlinks support was grafted
on much later and almost certainly has a corner case or three remaining
(symlinks aren't platform-portable, and were not originally supported at
all by fossil).

As of 5 minutes ago i've got the next 2 days off and will take a look at
this tomorrow (but i'm not familiar with the symlinks handling, so i can
make no immediate promises).
