I'm a great believer in the "if it ain't busted, don't fix it"
philosophy.  If your system is working, leave it as is.  Just
remember, if you install a base package, a file with the same
name as one of those symlinks could follow it and overwrite
busybox.  If that happens, boot the ramdisk version of BL2
and copy the ramdisk busybox over the corrupted one on the HD.
