Hmmmmm... tested against other types of file systems and didn't see any issues. Tested manually against ZFS again:
% ~/src/cpython/python /tmp/test_readlink.py

This time, src got truncated by 3 characters back down to 24. (Instead of getting rounded up by 6 from 18->24 in the previous example.)
Next step: replicate with a C snippet and ping the FreeBSD developers, I guess.
