This clobbers any user override of the link. config shouldn't change
anything the sources haven't changed.

I override the linke a lot, e.g.:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 bde wheel 12 May 20 21:16 /c/obj/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC/@@ -> /usr/src/sys
lrwxr-xr-x 1 bde wheel 14 May 20 21:16 /c/obj/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC/machine@ -> @/i386/include
The "machine" symlink should always be to @/${MACHINE_ARCH}/include so that
it doesn't need to be overridden. Then there would be a problem avoiding
clobbering of overrides of "@".
