emerge --info openrc

After world update from sys-apps/openrc-0.34.11 to sys-apps/openrc-0.35.1, the net init scripts /etc/init.d/net.ethxx failed with error message:

# /etc/init.d/net.ethn0 start
/lib/rc/sh/openrc-run.sh: line 36: /etc/in: No such file or directory
 * ERROR: in failed to start

Downgrading back to 0.34.11 fixed the problem.

This was fixed with openrc-0.35.2.

If the symlink target was longer than 8 bytes, it failed to locate.

Relative symlinks in the same directory were likely to succeed, absolute ones would always fail.
