Merge branch 'master' into 'master'
Fix: directory followed symlinks with :follow-links nil I'm on Linux. I'm looking at a directory that contains both physical directories and symbolic links to directories. ### What I would expect: ```common-lisp (directory "/path/to/dir/*.*" :check-for-subdirs t :follow-links t :truenamep nil) ``` will show both (because it will show everything in that directory) and mark both types as directories with trailing slashes. ```common-lisp (directory "/path/to/dir/*.*" :check-for-subdirs t :follow-links nil :truenamep nil) ``` will again show all files but only add trailing slashes to the physical subdirectories. ### What actually happens Both commands give me the same output. That is because `directory` calls `unix:unix-file-kind` to categorise files into directory/link/etc., which internally calls `stat`. It will only use `lstat` if the second, optional argument is passed as **t**. In default mode (the way it currently is) symlinks to directories will be assigned the type :directory regardless of the flags passed to `directory`. I believe the change contained in this merge request is thus the correct fix. See merge request !15
