I tried the 'ln -s' command in bothe 4.3 & 4.7 in a situation
where it should fail and it did, but it still had a return/exit

a b' where the file b existed (and was a directory)

In this case, ln should make a link called b/a pointing to a. ln
probably successfully did this and returned 0. The behaviour is
documented in the ln man page I think.
