The lang/perl5/files/perllink.in script should be modified so that it 
checks to see if $dest is a symlink or not before overwriting it.  The 
check should be done by Perl, so the appropriate code needs to be 
emitted to the Perl interpreter instead of simply using "test -h" in 
shell.  Incidentally, if someone who knows Perl could rewrite that 
script so that it's pure Perl instead of a shell script emitting Perl 
code to the Perl interpreter, that would be great.

        Cheers,
