++      comparing data_file_name or index_file_name against the data
++      directory, we try to resolve all symbolic links. On some systems,
++      we use realpath(3) for the resolution. This returns ENOENT if the
++      resolved path does not refer to an existing file. my_realpath()
++      does then copy the requested path verbatim, without symlink
++      resolution. Thereafter the comparison can fail even if the
++      requested path is within the data directory. E.g. if symlinks to
++      another file system are used. To make realpath(3) return the
++      resolved path, we strip the table name and compare the directory
++      path only. If the directory doesn't exist either, table creation
++      will fail anyway.
