Bug Description

Running ./mkmovixiso --verbose --output-file=proto.iso videos/*.wmv
Output:
Your movix directory seems to be in: "/usr/share/emovix"
MoviX temporary directory is: /tmp/movix-1258549113
Starting mkisofs...
mkisofs -o "/home/cjs/videos/proto.iso" -v -r -J -f -joliet-long -V "eMoviX 0.9.0 CD" -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -b eMoviX/boot/isolinux.bin -c eMoviX/boot/isolinux.boot -sort eMoviX/boot/iso.sort .
genisoimage: No such file or directory. Can't open sort file list eMoviX/boot/iso.sort
Your iso image is now in "/home/cjs/videos/proto.iso":
ls: cannot access /home/cjs/videos/proto.iso: No such file or directory
You can safely delete the temporary directory /tmp/movix-1258549113

Appears to be due to globbing failure in heinous shell invocation:

system "ln -s \"$movixDir\"/isolinux/{iso.sort,movix.*} eMoviX/boot";
(Why not use symlink?)

Suggested minimal patch supplied.
