Just a followup on what I said before..  I realise that just because the 
tree layout isn't completely pure elsewhere doesn't make this "ok" 
automatically.  My defence was that I wasn't the first..

No, symlinks dont come through CVS, so it'll have to be moved if that's 
what is the right thing to do (which I'm happy to do).

Cheers,
