The symlinks change is  just a configuration change within
Module::Build and Boilerplater to allow symlinked directories to be
followed.  I was using this to have KSx extensions with both the C and
Perl code in the same tree. This is a slightly hackish solution, but
changing the configuration to allow them to be intermixed for real
seemed hard.

Ignoring the emacs temp files is also mostly a configuration change,
although it requires a little more ugliness.  Emacs lock files have
the format .#filename where the ending (.c or .h) is unchanged.  This
causes strange errors if one runs Build while emacs has unsaved files.

I apologize that these aren't great first commits, but I've been
making them by hand in all the trees I've checked out so it seemed
like a good idea.  Feel free to revert as necessary.
