Paul,  

I am sorry if I have not explained myself properly, but I intend what I wrote.

I want to have a link: dir/foobar, that links to dir1/foobar1, and I am in the 
directory that contains both dir and dir1

>ln -s dir1/foobar1 dir/foobar

works as expected.  But if I put this in the makefile:


dir/foobar: dir1/foobar1
        ln -s $< $@

then this makefile does not work, as I explained before.  It works the first 
time, but then for a remake, does not work.
