Hello, according to the man page: "In contrast, chmod
ignores symbolic links encountered during recursive
directory traversals". Is there any reason for this? I've
done a bit of mailing list archaeology and found this [1]
thread with patch. I might try to rewrite the patch for
current version and add some tests if there is no reason
that would discourage from having this functionality.
