+This bugfix causes a regression in Mono 1.2 for Directory.Exists()
+which now reports that symlinked directories do not exist:
+
+Here to reproduce it:
+mkdir foo
+ln -s foo bar
+class MainClass {
+	static void Main(string[] args) {
+		System.Console.WriteLine(System.IO.Directory.Exists("bar"));
+	}
+}
+
+On Mono 1.1.18 it outputs as expected "True", on Mono 1.2 "False"
+
