Now it's constrained to $PORTAGE_ACTUAL_DISTDIR/ so that we don't stray
from PMS:

It's a side-effect from this fix which makes dodoc preserve symlinks
like doins does in EAPI 4:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356461
I guess that we could make doins automatically dereference any symlinks
that refer to files absolute paths. For symlinks that refer to
directories by absolute paths, we could continue to preserve the symlink
as we do now.

[gentoo-portage-dev] dodoc creating a symlink to distfiles?
the recently added sci-math/minisat ebuild has this:
dodoc "${DISTDIR}"/MiniSat.pdf || die
which results in:
sym /usr/share/doc/minisat-2.2.0-r2/MiniSat.pdf ->
/usr/portage/distfiles/MiniSat.pdf 1302537422
Is that a portage issue or an issue with the ebuild?
My portage is a few days old; I last merged commit 1d6e6b2fe3b01 from 27 March.
