Odd symlink behavour

I have noticed an odd behavour with symlinked directories under the
2.0.22 kernel on the ext2 filesystem. When copying a file from a
symlinked directory using a relative destination, the file is copied not
to the location relative to the symlinked directory, but to the location
relative to the original directory.
