Symlinks wreak havoc

I'm working on Gstreamer project, and the build system generates a few symlinks to the directories inside the projects (like gst-plugins-base -> ../subprojects/gst-plugins-base). Opening the original file works, opening through the symlink doesn't, and generates errors like these:

[Error - 12:48:45 PM] Request textDocument/documentLink failed.
  Message: Unable to find file /Users/me/projects/gstreamer-utilities/gst-build/gst-plugins-base/gst/encoding/gstencodebin.c

Would it make sense to try to open the absolute path in case of failure instead of erring out?
