From here it looks like this:

$ find -P 17 17/postgresql-17 17/postgresql-17/F-42 main main/non-common main/non-common/postgresql-17 main/non-common/postgresql-17/F-42 -ls -prune

Most of the *files* in main/non-common/postgresql-17/F-42 are symbolic links, but the source files whose
paths will be embedded in the DWARF information are located in a normal tree of directories:

$ find -P F-42/postgresql17-17.4-build F-42/postgresql17-17.4-build/postgresql-17.4 F-42/postgresql17-17.4-build/postgresql-17.4/src -prune -ls
1099584 0 drwxr-xr-x 4 saper saper 46 Apr 24 09:42 F-42/postgresql17-17.4-build
17946944 4 drwxr-xr-x 6 saper saper 4096 Apr 24 09:43 F-42/postgresql17-17.4-build/postgresql-17.4
1206330 4 drwxr-xr-x 16 saper saper 4096 Apr 24 09:43 F-42/postgresql17-17.4-build/postgresql-17.4/src

The solution could be to move the build tree outside of this symlink maze and things should be fine (if we need those 1[3-8] trees at all).

Sorry for being a pain - this was quite a showstopper for me
