support separate directory hard link

new feature

do you want to add support for separate directory hard links?

perhaps by optionally treating hard links as symbolic links

can't build openwrt

Hard link support is required for building svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk because the makefiles use for example this command that require hardlink support

ln et/libcom_err.a libcom_err.a

reference

the documentation describe that the command isn't supported

;; Due to the arrangement of data structures, hard links which are
;; not in the same directory are not supported.

We're looking now at better link support. I'm not sure if hard link support will be included, but definitely symbolic link support will (better than what we have now).
