/**
|

* Determine if a symlink points outside the current directory tree.
|
||||
* This is considered "unsafe" because e.g. when mirroring somebody
|
||||
* else's machine it might allow them to establish a symlink to
|
||||
* /etc/passwd, and then read it through a web server.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @param dest Target of the symlink in question.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @src src Top source directory currently applicable. Basically this
|
||||
* is the first parameter to rsync in a simple invocation, but it's
|
||||
* modified as topsrcname in slightly complex ways.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @retval True if unsafe
|
||||
* @retval False is unsafe
