Empty symlinks and full POSIX compliance

I'm not sure I agree that a change TO a stupid behaviour is a good idea, event if the current state is a stupid behaviour and the next state is standard-compliant.

The change is just not worth it, and if you must have a stupid behaviour, it's better to keep the one you have.

It would be different to change to a *less* stupid behaviour (even non standard-compliant) like changing the 'no such file or directory' to 'symlink to empty name not allowed'. Not compliant but sure less stupid and confusing.
