No, that's ok and he is right. Unlike stat results, Perl's file state checks do resolve the symlinks so -d returns true if the symlink has a directory target. But we want to treat symlinks like files and just copy them over like other files. Otherwise a real directory can (and most likely will) be created instead of the symlink.
