Hi,
I'm not 100% satisfied with this patch now. Looking back it fails
the following case:
-P Do not follow symbolic links in the file hierarchy, instead con-
sider the symbolic link itself in any comparisons. This is the
default.
I need to add a check for this option to the patch, use stat if
the `follow links' state is true, otherwise use lstat.
Thanks,
-Garrett
