Failure is reproducible on a beagleboard running the 2.6.33-500-omap
kernel with maverick userspace; reproducible on both ext3 and tmpfs;
/proc is correctly mounted.
** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu Maverick)

On careful inspection of the armel strace output we can
see that the result buffer of the first readlink result has
extra non null garbage after the 17 bytes copied in by
readlink:
readlink(test-linkat.tlink1, test-linkat.tsub1..., 1025) = 17
readlink(test-linkat.tlink5, test-linkat.tsub1, 1025)
Steve pointed out that areadlink_with_size does append the null byte so
this theory was bogus.
