(This bug report unfortunately got no response at the time.)
If you have
(setq eshell-warn-dot-directories nil)
then "ln -s . foo" works fine, so I think this is expected behaviour?
And so I'm closing this bug report, but if somebody things that this is
something that should work specially in the "ln" command, feel free to
reopen.
