gitweb and symbolic links

Hello,

I am wondering about a possibly easy bug which you may be aware of.

For some reason if I place a symbolic link in a directory under the  
project root,  gitweb is no longer able to find the project.  I was  
looking through the .cgi file but I don't know enough perl to fix the  
problem myself.

Let me know if this makes sense.
Cheers
Marco
