Well, if you follow the documentation is:
* Mount points are symbol links with the following contents:
*
* '#' | '%' [ cell ':' ] volume-name [ '.' ]
As stated in the comment above followmountpoint() in arlad/fcache.c.
But for tramsarc/some old tool compat any link starting with
# or % is considered a mountpoint and the last char is ignored.
% means go to RW, # follow what tree you happen to be in.
The semations where to go when hitting a mountpoint is
"intresting" to say at least. Intressed parties can read the comment
above find_volume() in arlad/fcache.c.
Love
