Revert "Fix the symlink madness"

before this commit:
root@dmlb2000:~# which sendmail
/usr/sbin/sendmail
root@dmlb2000:~# ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Oct 30 22:37 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> exim
root@dmlb2000:~#

after this commit:
root@dmlb2000:~# which sendmail
which: no sendmail in
(/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/usr/bin/X11:/root/bin)
root@dmlb2000:~# ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Oct 30 22:42 /usr/sbin/sendmail -> usr/sbin/exim
root@dmlb2000:~#

if symlinks point to a relative path they use the directory they are in
to find the file after your commit it was looking for a
/usr/sbin/usr/sbin/exim file not the file you were thinking, your commit
would have worked if you used absolute file paths (ie `ln -sf /usr/sbin/exim
/usr/lib/sendmail)

This reverts commit a7df4d07a92ddc60db69eb6cd592a47c17b7f76c.
