I just tried to remove a directory via a sym link that points to
that directory:
#mkdir a
#ln -s a b
#touch a/c
#rm -rf b
#ls a
c

It did not work like you decribed it. Maybe I did not understand
you description correctly.

That could explain your disapearing success, when u used autopsy
and such tools...

?
