+Summary: Directory.GetFiles returns 0 elements on directories with symlinks.
+
+1. Create an empty directory:
+
+   mkdir /tmp/tests
+
+2. Put symlinks in there
+   cd /tmp/tests
+   ln -s /etc/passwd .
+
+3. Run attached program, it prints zero:
+
+using System;
+using System.IO;
+
+class X {
+
+static void Main ()
+{
+	Console.WriteLine (Directory.GetFiles ("/tmp/tests").Length);
+}
+}
+
+It should print 1
+
+The question is whether we should follow links to determine the proper kind
+of link or not for FindFirst/FindNext
