dired-do-copy's action on symlinks should be made the same as cp(1),
else surprises occur for better or worse.
$ ls -ogt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 1 2006-10-08 00:16 oooo -> f
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 2006-10-08 00:16 g
lrwxrwxrwx 1 1 2006-10-08 00:16 qq -> f
-rw-r--r-- 1 0 2006-10-08 00:15 f
cp qq g created g.
dired-do-copy on qq to oooo gave oooo.
