I don't understand why you want multiple levels of symlinks (e.g. a->b
and b->f, where a and b are symlinks and f is a file) instead of a
single level of symlinks (e.g. a->f and b->f, where a and b are symlinks
and f is a file), or even a single level of hard links (e.g. a = b = f
where all three are hard links to the same file).
