Comment (by dluke at macports.org):

 The initial implementation used symlinks (which mostly works but does
 break some things). In fact, the current implementation falls back to
 symlinks if hard links don't work.

 An existing workaround is to just run in 'direct' mode (perhaps with
 'archivemode' as well).
