I think that rsync might overwrite or get confused by your symlinks, regardless
of the actual filenames.
You might be better off using something like md5s
Is there any way to have rsync compare against a file with a *different*
name?
What I'd like to do is compare a vm - whatsit.img against a backup -
whatsit.current, that's a symlink to whatsit.timestamp, and if different,
*then* make the copy (which my script will then move to
whatsit.newtimestamp
