Bogus permalinks created when using external builds directory

    Description

      If you set the external builds directory for Jenkins to e.g. /tmp/builds/${ITEM_FULL_NAME} and build some job, you will get a symlink /tmp/builds/lastStable pointing to builds/2013-... which does not exist. The symlink should be created in the job's root directory, as it would be if the builds dir were not set (except with an absolute target path in this case).
