Well, it does work - the -path-list option allows you to list pathspecs as
you would on the command line.
I guess you mean "it doesn't do exactly what I want it to do"
Pathspecs that are symbolic links to directories have always been traversed
(to change this default behaviour would cause problems).
However, it would be possible to add (yet) another command line option to
disable this. You can test this out for yourself by changing the two
occurrences of stat_filter() to lstat_filter() in mkisofs.c
