Are these sym links going to remain this way in subsequent releases? Or will they revert back to the way they were in 1.0.2d? Merging changes like this into svn is a pain because it causes conflicts.

There are still many broken symbolic links in the new 1.0.2e tarball:

Will there be a 3rd 1.0.2e tarball released to fix this?
The sym links are not required to successfully build - they get
recreated anyway when you run "Configure". I've had some reports of some
versions of tar (the one I've heard of is on mingw) complaining about
the sym links but actually all the files are extracted ok, and it is
perfectly possible to successfully build. As its a relatively minor
issue I'm currently minded to stick with what we've got.
