Well, typically I'm reading or editing those header files at the same
time as the corresponding .c files -- when I want to change something
in x509_vfy.h, then I'm in the crypto/x509 directory anyway. While
just reading them, I don't care if I access them directly or via
symlinks.
And if the editor is Emacs, it notices automatically when you're
trying to visit a symlink to a file that is under version control, and
suggests that you go to the real one instead.
