(I'm currently experiencing this with 3C147/batch-cal/pipelines.purrlog -- batch- cal was renamed from spw3-batch.)

Firstly, the renamed directory renames in purrlog/dirconfig, and causes an exception on startup. Should check for exceptions and remove from list.

Secondly, purr dies with a segfault shortly afterwards -- no doubt it somehow keeps looking for non-existing directories and ends up in a tangle.

Fixed in 7450. Dir now removed from dirconfig if it doesn't exist.

The crash was caused by multiple symlinks pointing to the same file, thus producing duplicate data products. Fixed in Editors.py.
