>Description:
mwrite is an absolute symbolic link to /usr/local/bin/mtools
while any other "tool" is a relative symbolic link to 
/usr/local/bin/mtools.
This, of course, is not a problem, but if you are creating 
iso-images or diskless distributions it might be.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install mtools-3.9.8_1
>Fix:
cd /usr/local/bin
rm mwrite
ln -s mtools mwrite
