Re: ange-ftp-insert-directory should not follow symlinks

[Richard M. Stallman]

    My understanding is that it was added because with some FTP servers "ls foo"
    fails to list the contents of the foo directory when foo is a symlink.

That is what I recall.  I also recall that it always caused some
problems, but it was the lesser evil.

    So I suggest we remove the symlink-following code from
    ange-ftp-insert-directory, since it is otherwise harmful.

Ok, please do.

Thanks.
