[Zope] Symlink product returns "Attribute Error"

[Joel Burton]

Symlink product isn't working for me. When I go to add a symlink, I get an
Attribute Error:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: testa

Traceback (innermost last):

bury is the folder I'm trying to add the symlink to, testa is the object
I'm trying to symlink to.

It would appear that the problem is that _setObject() call doesn't work,
and is unable to find the newly added symlink after it's added.

I've looked at the source code (it's a very short product) but don't see
anything wrong with the constructor. I assume this has something to do
with the deep magic of playing with the __of__ acquisition in the symlink.

I'm running Zope 2.5.0. Anyone have any success with this version, or
ideas of where to start?

Thanks!
