Attached is a patch which does this, and works (for a new installation).
However, it doesn't attempt to deal with the fact that existing installations
have a symlink at /FAQ and this version makes a directory at /FAQ.
Is this something that install can deal with on it's own ? I don't know how
to deal with this, and am not sure that it's safe for me to try given that I
don't really understand make yet.
Also, I'm not sure how long the redirect should be. I've gone for 3 seconds
because anything higher seemed too long, and anything lower seemed, well, too
short.
Oh, and I fully admit to having thrown this together.
Anyway, comments appreciated, but patches would be best.
