Actually, ls is overly complicated for these examples and actually obscures
the Linux results. Below, I repeat the experiments with 'stat foo' instead of
'ls foo' and 'ls | grep foo' instead of 'ls foo'.
The summary of the below is that MacOSX HFS+, Linux ext3, and fusexmp
on Linux ext3 produce identical results. fusexmp on MacOSX HFS+ differs
from the others.
Create foo->foo ('ln -s foo foo').
MacOSX HFS+:
$ stat foo > /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
$ rm foo
$ echo $?
0
$ ls | grep -q ^foo$; echo $?
1
fusexmp on MacOSX HFS+:
$ stat foo > /dev/null
stat: foo: stat: Too many levels of symbolic links
$ echo $?
1
$ rm foo
rm: foo: Too many levels of symbolic links
$ echo $?
1
$ ls | grep -q ^foo$; echo $?
0
Linux ext3:
$ stat foo > /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
$ rm foo
$ echo $?
0
$ ls | grep -q ^foo$; echo $?
1
fusexmp on Linux ext3:
$ stat foo > /dev/null
$ echo $?
0
$ rm foo
$ echo $?
0
$ ls | grep -q ^foo$; echo $?
1
