Links problem with 2.1.19

[Jim Wight]

Something has gone wrong with links between 2.1.15, which I've been
using, and 2.1.19, which I've installed in order to try out. 

All my links actions, which succeed when using 2.1.15, are failing at
2.1.19 with messages of the form:

  Links didn't find any file to match /path/to/foo -> /path/to/bar

For the action:

links:
        /tmp/somelink   ->      /var

-d2 output for 2.1.15 contains

Actionsequence item links
ExpandVarstring(/tmp/somelink)
ExpandVarstring(/var)
ExpandVarbinserv /var, (Binserver is myhost)
Linkfiles(/tmp/somelink,/var)
IgnoredOrExcluded(somelink)
Trying to link /tmp/somelink -> /var (/var)
cfengine:myhost: Link (/tmp/somelink->/var) exists.
KillOldLink(/tmp/somelink)
CompressPath(/tmp/somelink./var,/var)

whereas 2.1.19 has

Actionsequence item links
ExpandVarstring(/tmp/somelink)
ExpandVarstring(/var)
cfengine:myhost: Links didn't find any file to match /tmp/somelink -> /var
