That seems really odd. And so far no one else has reported that. Therefore I suspect something in your environment. Can you perform some tests? What do these say? type ln ln --version /bin/ln -s test test.link > Infinite linkage! Have you ever heard of that > experienced.

This is the first I have heard of anything like this. I suspect that ln is an alias or perhaps even a different program entirely.
