Hi,
I've spent many frustrating hours cornering this bug. Here's a short
testcase to reproduce it:
#!/bin/sh
cd /tmp
rm -rf z b
mkdir z z/a z/b
echo ha >z/a/file
ln -s z/b
cd b
cat ../a/file
emacs -Q ../a/file # buffer-file-name = /tmp/a/file
Why doesn't emacs behave like cat or vim? Isn't this behavior a bad default?
Thanks.
