Ok thanks, that shows the link.  Unfortunately, now I cannot move a
broken symlink.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bug$ rm *
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bug$ touch real
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bug$ ln -s real link
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bug$ rm real 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bug$ mv link link2
mv: cannot move `link' to `link2': No such file or directory
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bug$ ls -l
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 james james 4 2007-09-23 20:48 link -> real

BTW - why I am trying to do this? svn does not work on cifs partitions
because of this error.  If it checks out a directory with links in, it
moves the real file before the link, and the breaks because the link
won't move.
