    Yes, the "allow-symlinks" setting is on, in this particular repository

That is a reasonable/realistic assumption, but symlinks support was
grafted on much later and almost certainly has a corner case or three
remaining (symlinks aren't platform-portable, and were not originally
supported at all by fossil).

As of 5 minutes ago i've got the next 2 days off and will take a look at
this tomorrow (but i'm not familiar with the symlinks handling, so i can
make no immediate promises).

Thanks Stephan, from what I can see the web content is returned by
content_get() in content.c but I've no idea how rids relate to file
tree traversal.

Cheers, Stuart
