It is probablly due to the limitation of Unix implementation

This is because most of python's os.xxx methods de-reference symlinks. You
get this error because 'nothere' doesn't exist. The correct way to get time
info on symlinks is to use os.lstat(), which doesn't de-reference links.
I realize you
rsync does not sync the timestamp on symlink (Solaris 8).
It is probablly due to the limitation of Unix implementation
of symlink, but I would like to know why rsync/Unix does not
do this, and what we can do about it. Is the conclusion that
rsync syncs everything except the timestamp on symlink
