I've built quite a few packages with makepkg-3.1 and it appears to be working ok :)

I thought it worked since I first tried it on pacman-git PKGBUILD. But it actually fails with most PKGBUILDs using source tarballs.

makepkg didn't correctly detect the type of the archive since it didn't dereference symlinks, and so failed to extract the source tarball.
