Ok, I pulled down the tarball.  I just need to replace the files in that
directory tree and do a build for just it?

This looks like a module that I will need to modify to get symbolic links
to work correctly.  I need cwd to use realpath() when symbolic links are
to be used or it will give the wrong answer if a when the default as been
set to a directory path via a symbolic link.
