Well, not sure what to do with this.  I haven't checked, but I
consider it not unlikely that this issue still persists.  However,
is it worth spending time on a fix?  I don't think so.

More worrisome is that it also deleted all the files one level up from the source directory, in my
case C:\Users\Cataphract_\Documents...

Description:
------------
When running buildconf and configure on the same source directory, but via different symlinks, the
resulting Makefile produces rules that result in nmake clean causing all the files (but not
directories) of the source dir being deleted.

Actual result:
--------------
The gist https://gist.github.com/1381227 contains two
files.

In the first, both buildconf and configure were run under C:\Users\Cataphract_\Documents\php-src

In the second, buildconf was run under C:\Users\Cataphract\Documents\php-src and configure was run
under C:\Users\Cataphract_\Documents\php-src

C:\Users\Cataphract_\Documents\php-src and C:\Users\Cataphract\Documents\php-src represent the same
directory.

nmake clean was run under C:\Users\Cataphract_\Documents\php-src in both cases.
