/afs/athena.mit.edu/contrib/sipb/rtbin/rrn is a symlink to "/usr/sipb/rtbin/rn".
I can think of no reason why this should not be a symlink to "rn", and at least
two reasons why it should not be (absolute symlinks are slower, it requires
"/usr/sipb" to point to the right place when there is no need for it to).
