Which, as I said, I have already addressed (and which Linus has also
expanded upon in this thread). Since those hardlinks would be hidden
from users who did not go to some trouble to find them, there will not
be inconsistency problems. Scripts will have to either go to some effort
to change their PATH, or simply use the correct form, and I expect them
to do the latter.
