Sigh.

Maybe. I knew about the relative symlink problem a long time ago and
fretted about it until a search turned up only a handful, which could
be easily fixed. I subsequently forgot about fixing them until his bug
report.

However, rerunning the search is failing in odd ways. Now I see that
the tool I was using to do it is fundamentally broken. Odd that didn't
show up until now. I just discovered gfind can do this search, and so
far it has turned up almost 600 relative links.

I am not a happy camper.
