      In our build system, we make a symlink from the build tree to the system
      configuration. When removing a project from Hudson, it all got deleted!

      To reproduce:

      Create a new job "Test".

      $ ln -s ~/precious ~/.hudson/jobs/Test/builds/link-to-precious
      $ ls ~/precious
      my-data

      Delete Project "Test" using the web interface.

      $ ls ~/precious

      My data is gone!
