The warnings wouldn't even appear if cscope were allowed to do the tree 
traversal by itself.  I.e. cscope -R already skips symlinks silently, 
without emitting any warnings (see issrcfile() testing for S_ISREG()).

You only get those warnings if cscope was explicitly told, by way of a 
name list file (cscope.index, or -i option), to index a given set of 
files, and there are symlinks in that list.  All you would have to do is 
keep the symlinks out of that name list file.

I don't see a need for a change in cscope here.  The desired behaviour 
can be had without changing cscope.
