Presumably this is with environmental variable SAL_ALLOW_LINKOO_SYMLINKS
set to true, i.e. building in an environment where . ./ooenv was
previously done to set the hacky SAL_ALLOW_LINKOO_SYMLINKS to true

I worked around this at
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/ure/commit/?id=784641a19811c22208e7db8efa150e744348d8bf
in master.

Don't know, in the light of that, if we still need this proposed patch
then ?
