#6860: Synchronize subfolders erronously looks in similarly named symbolic links

 When the synchronize function looks in subfolders, it erronously includes
 local files that reside in a completely different folder that simply
 happens to have the same name and being the target of a symbolic link. An
 example makes it easier to understand:

 0. Let's call the folders to be synchronized for 'MainFolder', same name
 in the local and remote domains.
 1. Both the local and remote 'MainFolder' have a subfolder called 'pics'.
 2. Both the local and remote 'MainFolder' also have a symbolic link named
 'picsCommon' that points to a folder named 'pics' that resides above
 'MainFolder'.
 3. When Synchronize compares and lists files in the the subfolder
 'MainFolder/pics', it will ALSO include all files in the local
 'picsCommon'!! That's very wrong! Thus, it lists the union of all files in
 'MainFolder/pics' plus the files in the folder 'pics' that reside above
 'MainFolder', as if they were all in 'MainFolder/pics'!

 If I do a synchronize ONLY of 'MainFolder/pics', then it behaves as it
 should because that does not contain any subfolders.
