I am surprised with this whole 'recursive' issue because in a clean source tree
there are no recursive symlinks. They only come to be if a developer forgets to
run 'make obj' before doing 'make' in modules directories.
I think that it is a good practice to never pollute the source tree with build
objects, they should belong to /usr/obj or equivalent.
