Another patch from Matt Kraai <kraai@alumni.carnegiemellon.edu>:
> > The following patch allows ln -n to function like GNU. It also fixes a > typo with my previous patch to add support for ln FILE DIRECTORY. And > it removes some code that checks the maximum length of the filenames. I > can't figure out why that code is necessary. Anyone know? > > Matt
