That's definitely the problem.  Tracing up the call stack,
I think the problem should show up in link.do-link-recursively.
The attached patch dumps out the local variables.  I'm guessing
that this will show a lowercase /d:/ in target-path.  If my
guess is correct, then the solution is to normalize the path
in do-link-recursively.
