Peter Kjellerstedt writes:

ln.patch:
* Define $(LN) as ln in Rules.mak.
* Change all occurrences of ln into $(LN).
* Change all constructs like (cd path && ln -sf foo/file file)
  into $(LN) -sf foo/file path/file. The latter construct is
  already used in a number of places so it should not be
  an additional compatibility problem.
