In a conversation with the Claude 3 Haiku AI I confirmed that this is
very likely to be a bug ~ since `ln` should only dereference the TARGET
when the -L Option is given.
The documentation for 'ln -r' says:
Relative symbolic links are generated based on their canonicalized
containing directory, and canonicalized targets. I.e., all
symbolic links in these file names will be resolved.
So it appears ln is behaving as documented. The documentation goes on to
say how you can get finer-grained control.
