fromname is the completed file name, an absolute path.
fromfile can be relative name. If it is, then then filename is extended
by prepending the common directory name.
In the code the patch is changing symlinkcontents is a first prepended
with enough ../ to get to the root directory. Then in your version
fromfile is appended. This is wrong when fromfile is not an absolute
path. fromname is the correct value.
