dired-make-relative-symlink

[Pierre Lorenzon <devel@pollock-nageoire.net>]

Hi,

I wonder why the function dired-make-relative-symlink
recalculate the relative name of the file instead of using
file-relative-name of the files.el library.

Making a few tests it seems that both codes produce the same
result. Anyway maybe these tests are not torturing the code
enough.

files.el library seems to be very old and it looks strange to
me that when dired-x.el was developped files.el was not known.

I did not report that as a bug since it is not a bug but I
think that a system is more maintainable when code is not
duplicated.

Regards

PS/ Sory if I did not notice an evident reason for which the
code is so !
