-e file exists test fails if file is a dangling symlink, this to me does not seem like the correct behavior, the test should not follow the symlink (lstat'ed instead of stat'ed).
The file (whatever the symlink is pointing to, and a file isn't a symlink) doesn't exist, so it should fail. Why do you think that it should behave differently?
