Sending it here to bug-gnu-utils was of course perfectly fine since ln is one of the GNU utils and this is a good list for it. But sending it to bug-coreutils was not good since it isn't a bug in ln and opening a bug ticket there is silly. Especially since you already have the answer here. And especially since I already said that the mailing list for discussion was [email protected] instead. Bob
