Looking up the log for that change, i only have "Allow
DBFinder to follow symlinks, old change i do not remember."
which isn't really helpful ;-)

i was going to say "let's make it optional", but thinking
about it, i don't see what the above does for you.  I'm
guessing the symlink isn't there for drraw's benefit as it
just doesn't make sense to have drraw visit both of these.

i think the change was probably done to support just what you
have above.  What i just don't get is that i've been using
such a symlink setup for a very long time myself.  A new
File::Find may have prompted me to make this change?
