/bin/chown linked to /bin/echo?

[Steve Peterson <stevep-hv@xxxxxxxx>]

Just spent the last hour bashing my head against the wall trying to get the 
Tomcat startup script running, and traced it down to the "chown" silently 
failing.  Well, it was actually not quite silent -- it was running echo 
instead.

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       9 Oct 23  2001 chown -> /bin/echo

This on a system that started as a 4.2 install, IIRC.

My other FreeBSD machine doesn't have any entry for chown in /bin, so I 
suspect this is leftover cruft from a previous release.

Any reason why I shouldn't just blow the link away?
