Use ln -n to avoid following symlinks to directories.

Evidently -h is the BSD option for `don't follow symlinks', following
the convention of chmod and other utilities, while -n is the GNU
option; fortunately at least NetBSD ln has had -n too for GNU
compatibility for decades so I'm satisfied with -n.  (Neither one is
POSIX.)
