Hi Eliot,

Resolving the symlinks has to happen at run time, not at compile or  
install (which might not happen) time.  There's also a catch-22 in  
where such a binary would live: the only reasonable place to put a  
dedicated 'symlink resolver' program would be in the squeak lib dir,  
which cannot be found in Markus's case except by first resolving the  
symlinks.

Cheers,
Ian
