Comment (by rhaas):

 I have no suggestion. The problem with the previous one is that it relies
 in hard links between directories which not all file systems support (well
 ok: 1 file system does not support, but it is on a cluster that I use).

 If you want to revert the patch in master then that is fine with me since
 I have no real better solution so far. However is this breaks (rhather
 than slows down) formaline on eg loewe then we need a workaround for the
 failure on loewe I think.
