autoconf (more precisely autom4te AFAICT) isn't hardlink safe..
That is, if I have a two or three source trees hardlinked together (to
save space) with only differing source files not linked, running
autoconf leaves configure (and possibly other files) still hardlinked.
This means that editing configure.ac in one source tree breaks configure
in others.
Whats the right place to file a bug on this?
