Hi,

Not had a chance to fork and write a spec for this but delayed storage doesn't appear to work with symlinked targets.

For instance - if I'm saving images to /opt/www/blah/current/public/images/blah.png (for instance), where images is symlinked to /opt/www/blah/shared/images, then the delayed storage stuff fails silently, at least as far as I can tell.

I _believe_ (though not entirely sure) I had CarrierWave set to copy things rather than move (ie default behaviour) but I may be wrong. Need to go back through my git log at some point.

Will do some more testing when I get a moment. Processing in this situation works fine, though!
