Review Request: 8003317: build-infra: Configure fails when current dir is part of a symlink

Looks ok.

I don't think this fixes my /net/`hostname`[.domainname]/ prefix problems on Solaris 11.
But your changes are needed, and the /net/ prefix fix can wait.

If the path to the source root contains a symlink, the check got fooled and refused to create a configuration anywhere.
