What were you trying to do?
	not depend on AFS very much


What went wrong?
	I wasted ~3M of local disk.


What should have happened?
	one of emacs-19 and emcas19.30 should be a symlink to the
	other, not hard links.  synctree which is what mkserv uses to
	bring things local does not understand hard links.


Yo, got any documentation, or other info?
	Yeah, this probably fits somewhere in the not a really big
	deal category

	FWIW the relevant .sync file contains the following line:
	copy usr/athena/bin/emacs* -p -f
