Just to be clear, I don't see that as being a problem.
I would expect Gentoo development to occur on systems which support
symlinks properly. For user systems, I would expect rsync mirrors to
replace symlinks with duplicated files.
That said, I have the same stance for symlinks as I have for
'if [[ ${PV} == 9999 ]]' blocks in ebuilds -- I don't like them but I
can live with them.
