The directory is not a symlink and we reproduced the bug in two
workstations with three different accounts. However we just realized
this is NFS related. If this test is carried out locally it works, when
run on an NFS share, it breaks.
Note that although this could be an NFS bug we only saw problems with
make, so perhaps it is still a make bug?
