ln -s in FreeBSD 6.1

[gs_stoller at juno.com]

	In  FreeBSD 6.1 , there was created a directory named  /var .
I created a subdirectory in it named  homes , and in that more
subdirectories, one per user in  /home .
	As a plain user , I tried to create (while in my home directory) 
a subdirectory named  var  by typing 
		ln -s  /var/homes/me  var
	Then I checked it by typing 'ls -l  var' and got
		/compat/linux/var
as the destination of the link.  What is happening?  Is this a bug in 
 FreeBSD 6.1 ?
