    link: work around IRIX bug
    
    On IRIX 6.5, link(file, "dangling") creates the target of dangling
    as a link to file, rather than failing with EEXIST.

    * lib/link.c (rpl_link): Work around it.
    * tests/test-link.h (test_link): Enhance test.
    * doc/posix-functions/link.texi (link): Document the bug.
