I don't expect people to wait for Saul's emails and then review patches
already on the mailing list.

Regardless, I'm rather torn in this case. Stefan's usecase is a valid
one and I don't see why we have to change the layout of DEPLOY_DIR
because of this one issue. I know of people doing some interesting
things with layouts and I don't really want to impose policy on that
which the change you propose does. Having the symlink contain MACHINE
but not the name is rather odd.

I also agree its late in the cycle for something which breaks build
scripts however :(.

So I'm probably in favour of reverting from 1.2 but adding straight away
for 1.3 although I don't like letting 1.2 out with this issue present
really.

Cheers,

Richard
