It's a side-effect from this fix which makes dodoc preserve symlinks |

like doins does in EAPI 4: |

I guess that we could make doins automatically dereference any symlinks |
22 |
that refer to files absolute paths. For symlinks that refer to |
23 |
directories by absolute paths, we could continue to preserve the symlink |
24 |
as we do now. |
