[Bug 500567] [NEW] Emacs22 doesn't work properly with hard links

[kostek]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: emacs22

I'm using Ubuntu Karmic with GNU Emacs 22.2.1.

So, I want to create a hard link to some text file, say, "somefile" with
ln or link command:

	~$ echo hello > somefile
	~$ ln somefile somefile-link
	~$ cat somefile
	hello
	~$ cat somefile-link 
	hello

After editing and saving "somefile" with emacs22, I get this:

	~$ cat somefile
	bye-bye!
	~$ cat somefile-link 
	hello

As you can see, emacs have broken the link between two files.
