I understand the implementation problems that has lead to adopt such a
behavior. However I think this is misleading and dangerous. I've lost some
links this way and I needed to review a server configuration at hand. At least
a warning message, such as "ignoring symlink date, considering the target date"
would be good. 

Cheers.
