Not if I restore each incremental into a different temp directory
  /home/joebob/restore1/src  (the softlink)
  /home/joebob/restore2/src (the directory containing ls)

It is then up to the user to move the src (either the softlink or the
directory back into their home.  And if they try to move the softlink,
then move the file into it, well, they don't have the proper permissions
to accomplish what they want.


or am I missing something?
