--- Comment #5 from Mathieu Arnold <mat@FreeBSD.org> ---
Reverting the commits is going to break things badly when things continue to
move on.

Your problem is that the directories are created using make(1) targets, and
that make(1) targets are in the form of "word:" so if you have
"target-with-a:in-the-middle:" it parses it as target-with-a that depends on
in-the-middle:.

The targets are only there to create the directories if they do not exist, =
so
symlinks will work as long as the target exists.
