There shouldn't be any limit to the number of symlinks that point to a
file.
The limit in hard links (which somebody else mentioned in this thread)
seems to be exactly 32,000 on my Linux/ext3 system I just tested with.
After that, all attempts to create more hard links return EMLINK ("The
file referred to by oldpath already has the maximum number of links to
it."). Not sure how consistent this is between Unices.
