fd86b4a48c Add a -w warning flag to ln(1). When the -w option is enabled,
ln(1) checks to see if the source of a symlink, i.e. the file it
should point to actually exists.  The default is the old ln
behavior, that does not check, to avoid surprising people who may
be using ln(1) in scripts or other non-interactive places.

61c79b122e Add link(1) and unlink(1) as special cases of ln(1) and rm(1)
respectively, in accordance with SUSv2.

This differs from the approach taken in NetBSD, but provides
less obscure error messages in at least the EISDIR case and
does not take up additional disk space for new binaries.

avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.
