This [attachment:trac_5799-redux_setup_py.patch patch] alters `setup.py`
so that it preserves symlinks. However, I'm far from convinced that it's
the right approach. Is it possible to identify and copy broken links in
Python? In particular:
* In `sage_findall()`, can we refine or avoid using the exception
handler? Perhaps it's better to use
[http://markmail.org/message/dcv4g5b2b4exw64u os.walk()], but the
`os.path.is*()` family actually follows symlinks.
* Is there a Pythonic analogue of `cp --preserve=links --no-dereference`?
Possible alternatives:
* Make a symlink in some `spkg-install`.
* Have Mercurial reconstitute the link.
