After exhaustive discussions and some meandering and confusion, enough
people are on track with the cause and effect of this, and although
fixing this severely degenerate case appears to violate the letter of
POSIX.1-200x, Bruce and I (and enough others) agree that it should be
comitted.
So, this patch generates an ENOENT error for any attempt to do a path lookup
through an empty symlink (e.g. open(), stat()).
