That doesn't do the trick. As the package I'm having this problem with
(lesstif) is using libtool, I already have a set of directories, with the
proper symlinks. Is there an easy way to reorder it so that the symlinks
follow the files they point to? I tried tar-ing it in the correct order,
removing the directories and untarring, but ran into diskspace problems.
