--- Comment #3 from d...@adrian-ebeling.de ---
I suppose you're right.
If is_­symlink(f), the overwrite_existing flag is not taken into account,
according to the standard.

Sounds like a standard oversight to me, though.

Sigh, I guess I just have to manually delete the destination beforehand if it's
a symlink. The thing is I have to copy a whole bunch of files and only some of
them are symlinks.

Thanks for your help.
