- * src/ln.c (XSTAT_THAT_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS_THE_WAY_LINK_DOES): Define.
- (do_link): Use XSTAT_THAT_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS_THE_WAY_LINK_DOES, rather
- than bare `stat'.
+ Allow hard links to symlinks on systems that support it.
+ * src/ln.c (STAT_LIKE_LINK): Define.
+ (do_link): Use STAT_LIKE_LINK, rather than bare `stat', and perform
+ the extra lstat only on systems where LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS.
* src/ls.c (long_options): Correct typo (s/'F'/'p'/) so that `-p' is
accepted as the short form of --file-type, per the documentation.
