+ chown --dereference did nothing when the owner/group of a
+ symlink matched the desired owner/group. Reported by David Malone.
+ Also reported in 1999 as http://bugs.debian.org/39642.
+
+ * src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): When --dereference has
+ been specified, and when processing a symlink, stat it to get the
+ owner and group of the referent.
