Interesting, I think I got confused by the fact that all the diskfs-
based filesystems in hurd currently with diskfs_shortcut_symlink set do
support symlinks, and those where that variable is not set (only fatfs,
IIRC) do not support symlinks.
I've reverted the commit, and going to propose a better (I hope)
solution for this.
