Doh! I'm slow tonight. I was storing the list of symlinks in a
variable - obviously it contained a very long line which scrolled
out of sight. The end of it was as expected, but the beginning
will have included the subdirectories.
Doesn't explain the whole problem, but it's a start. Sometimes, it
helps (eventually) to explain the problem - I just wish I could
manage by talking to myself :)

Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early. After all, she was an old lady.
Sometimes she went to bed as early as 6 a.m.
