Don't make recursive symlink

[Timmmm]

In the cxx build process it makes a recursive symlink to the crate root:

~ ls -l /Users/timh/workspace/libxyz/crates/core_logic/target/debug/build/core_logic-2813b45ab0a66cc3/out/cxxbridge/crate/core_logic/target/debug/build/core_logic-2813b45ab0a66cc3/out/cxxbridge/crate/
total 0
lrwxr-xr-x  1 timh  staff  69 24 Feb 13:24 core_logic -> /Users/timh/workspace/libxyz/crates/core_logic

It would be good if that could be avoided - lots of code just blindly walks trees following symlinks to infinity. It's their fault but it's still annoying (example).

Also I assume there is some alternative that doesn't involve symlinks otherwise how does this crate work on Windows?

It would be nice if this symlink didn't exist.

Ditto. Just ran into this issue with a C# project where Visual Studio walks the tree forever and throws an exception on solution build. This effectively makes the build.rs approach unfeasible for me. I can get around by killing the symlink as a post cargo build step, but eh...
