In this case you can copy hbmk.cfg to one of these location neutral  
dirs:
/etc/harbour or ~/.harbour.

If there is a way to detect that softlink condition we can add support
for it.

Yes, I'll add a new switch to control this behaviour.

I'm thinking about a good name... Any suggestions? It would
control inclusion of dir for both when Harbour is installed in
system location and also when not, only the defaults will be
different in these cases.

-shareable? -shareddist?
