I'd not bother with the sort. The output should be lexically ordered anyway, so it's redundant.
In some OS, you might need to add a -f to get it to replace the sym-link, and of course you need permission to write to the directory (which root will have, naturally)

NAME
PerlIO::via::symlink - PerlIO layers for create symlinks
SYNOPSIS
open $fh, '>:via(symlink)', $fname;
print $fh "link foobar";
close $fh;
DESCRIPTION
The PerlIO layer "symlink" allows you to create a symbolic link by writing to the file handle.
You need to write C"link $name" to the file handle. If the format does not match, "close" will fail with EINVAL.
