[NOT FIXED] Symbolic links & RCS -- READ IT!

Well, shoot.

The patch I just put up has a problem - bad_nw_rename wasn't configuring
at all.  This revised patch takes care of that and is a bit clearer
about what the problem is (utime(UNWRITEABLEFILE,struct utime) fails).

Sigh...  This one actually passes all my tests, and should be everything
the previous one was supposed to be. ;-)
