  * summary:  SFTP fails since update to 2.8b1 => SFTP fails with some
              symbolic links since update to 2.8b1

Comment:

 This occurs when the target of a symbolic links is either absent (eg a
 link to a removable hard disk) or is given in relative terms (eg link.file
 -> ../target.file rather than link.file -> /toplevel/level2/target.file).

 terminal sftp command simply lists the link as a file, but Cyberduck
 attempts to resolve the link and fails.

 For listing, Cyberduck fails if there is an unrecognised link in the login
 directory (eg /Users/userid) even when asked to list a different path (eg
 !sftp://userid@machine:22/dir).

 Synchronisation will fail to provide the remote listing (and hence assume
 none of the local files exist on the remote sever) if there is an
 unrecognised link anywhere in the recursive directory listing.
