The new dependency caching code breaks when SAGE_ROOT is a symlink.   
Easy fix: don't have SAGE_ROOT be a symlink.  But symlink's are  
convenient...

The issue is in module_path, which doesn't recognize that SAGE_ROOT  
and the absolute path of its input could not be text identical.  It  
could be fixed to be more robust.

It seems simpler -- and might prevent later problems -- if ~/sage/ 
sage checked if SAGE_ROOT is a valid symlink and if so, converted it  
to an absolute path.  Any thoughts ?  I'm not thrilled twiddling a  
user's setting so early in the game...
