Please remember to include a description of the problem and the approach
taken to fix it. This eliminates wasted time trying to decipher it later
or by people unfamiliar with the history. This is important even for
simple changes. In this case something like:
"
The previous fix for a bug in Ubuntu 10.04 readlink, $COMMIT_ID,
notified the user when a trailing slash was used. As there is no
semantic difference, simply remove any trailing slashes and proceed
without nagging the user.

This shouldn't be a question. If the documented behavior of readlink is
to return empty when the path doesn't exist, then assume this to be the
case. Also, it is a good idea to avoid contractions in printed error
messages.
echo >&2 "Error: the directory $PARENTDIR does not exist."
Otherwise, this looks good to me.
Thanks Dexuan!
