I got nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "disable_symlinks" in /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:22 after doing this. I was using nginx/1.8.0 on Mac OS X.

@frozen-flame disable_symlinks was added in version 1.1.15 (see docs), so it should have worked. Are you sure you were on 1.8.0, and that it was in the allowed context (http, server, or location)?
