Update of bug #34388 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Invalid                
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

Also from the doc string for stat:

If FILE is a symbolic link, `stat' will return information about the actual
file that is referenced by the link.  Use `lstat' if you want information
about the symbolic link itself.

It appears to work as documented, so I'm closing this report as invalid.
