Given that when I originally wrote the dirsearch thing for exim3 I did it as a
readdir, I think that doing an lstat is entirely reasonable.

Bear in mind that in dsearch, you're checking for the name existing in that
directory in general, so dangling symlinks don't seem like a problem to me.

I'd vote for changing it.

Cheers
