Apologies...

This is a botched test case. Because this doesn't actually delay the 
symlink creation, I didn't notice the delayed symlink handling creating 
the links in reverse order, causing my patch to not work correctly.

Will re-work the patch and double-check my test case against official 
busybox to verify that my next attempt actually fixes the problem.
