I've checked in a patch which should accomplish that. Note that /proc and /cygdrive always have a link count of 1 now, as for remote directories. In case of /proc, the real link count would only coincidentally match the number of subdirectories, while in case of /cygdrive the evaluation of the link count would result in accessing the floppy drive for each stat. Since the link count of 1 is known to work even with older find versions, that seems the best compromise to me. Other than that, the link count should be correct now for local directories.
