Hey guys,
Over the week-end I've packaged JBoss AS 6 into HomeBrew (a Mac OS X packaging system

I've discovered that our scripts are not symlinks friendly and will fail (often not
finding the jars).
I've fixed the issue but I wanted to get a review of my work. Let me know if you
thing there could be a problem, otherwise I'll apply them to SVN.

This is fragile I think. It'd probably be better to use "readlink"
instead, whose actual purpose is to read links.
