symlink() bug + patch

[Chris Faylor]

Thanks.  Applied.

Btw, I appreciate the test case which made it very easy to see that there

Andrew, have you sent in a release form yet?  I can apply small
fixes like this but if you are planning anything substantial for cygwin
we (unfortunately) need you to fill out a release assignment.
