[arm-gnu] Use of Hardlinks

[Ryan Cocks <ryan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gents,

Whilst updating to your more recent compilers we noticed you make heavy 
use of hardlinks.
We are currently storing the compilers we use internally under version 
control and we are finding the hardlinks get expanded - causing 
increased disk space and various concerned parties.
Our thinking is that we can replace the hardlinks with symlinks (which 
are supported by version control) without any adverse effects.
Does that sound about right or are there some issues we haven't thought of?

TIA,

Ryan
