Eli Collins commented on HADOOP-7089:
-------------------------------------

bq. Does this work on OSX, BSD, and Solaris? I seem to remember this being 
proposed before, but killed for compatibility reasons.

I checked that -m and -n were supported on Solaris.  Looks like from 
ZOOKEEPER-303 though that OSX doesn't have this option, think the same 
workaround is acceptable here?

> The manual link resolution logic in bin/hadoop-config.sh can be replaced with 
> readlink -m -n.  Ditto with other uses of cd + pwd to get an absolute path, 
> which can be fragile.
