)	ln one two
)	ls one two | cpio -o >/tmp/foo
)	rm one two
)	cpio -i one </tmp/foo
)	cpio -i two </tmp/foo
)
)Now we have cpio creating two files where there was supposed to be only one
)with two links.  Note that tar would get this one right!  (Although you would
)have to be careful to get the order right, admittedly a wart.)

Actually This should always create TWO FILES! Unless you want to go to
the effort of proving that one has not been modified when two is removed.
We're seeing two separate invocations of cpio with no knowledge of each
other -- How could it be correct to link them ??
