That's odd.  Your symlinks look fine.  What do you get if you call 
(asdf::resolve-symlinks "/home/melster/data/lisp/lib/systems/paip.asd")

According to reports, TRUENAME in ACL doesn't resolve symlinks as most
other Unix CLs do (not saying this is a bad thing; in fact, I quite
like it), so we have this RESOLVE-SYMLINKS function which is
special-cased for #+allegro.  I assume that ACL 6.2 still defines that
feature.

Can you post the .asd file you're using?
