Hi,

I've implemented symlink dereferencing flags for -H, -L and -P to most the
tools that
support traversing directories as required by the standard.

I don't think changing the permissions symlinks works on linux, but does
anyone have a platform where this is actually supported? This relates to
the, as yet, unimplemented -h flag.

Cheers,
Ralph
