Why? This seems to be the right thing to do. If you want to make a
symlink you either have to do one relative in the compat tree or
absolut to /usr/compat/linux....

Or do you mean that if the etc exist in the compat linux dir, it
should use that instead, well, then you have a problem with making a
symlink to the real / as Mike suggested in another mail.

I noticed that if you start the linux bash and do a cd / you get to
the real root :/
