Subject: Merge branch 'broken-symlinks' into 'develop'
X-Git-Url: http://git.pulsar-zone.net/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bff9aced440c47893d283d48cc251391828836a9;p=ecl.git

Merge branch 'broken-symlinks' into 'develop'

directories: don't break on broken symlinks

ECL when asked for a truename of a broken symbolic link signalled an
`file-error'. This isn't non-conformity, because spec doesn't specify
such situation, but lead to annoying errors with DIRECTORIES when even
irrelevant files were broken symlinks.

New behavior is as follows - broken symlinks are treated as regular
files (of :LINK kind) and no error is signalled. They aren't ignored
due to a few corner cases related to PROBE-FILE, OPEN and such.
