Well, "less README" folks would not be happy with a mere symbolic
link anyway--things like [INSTALL][] are pure eyesore and regression
relative to the straight text version.

I do not overly care, either.  I do not think people would complain
too much about the eyesore as long as the file is named README.md,
so in that sense, we'd be better off not having such a symbolic
link.
