byobu overwrites symlinked .bash_profile

[nnutter]

To reproduce:
1) make .bash_profile a symlink to another file
2) launch byobu and bring up menu (F9)
3) select "Byobu currently launches at login (toggle on)"

This causes byobu to, presumably, cat together the originally .bash_profile and a new line and overwrites the existing file. This should probably instead readlink .bash_profile if it is a symlink and use the target file.
