I had considered that as a possibility, but the documentation for each is the same, and manually attempting similar operations on a 7.0 box failed as it does on 7.1.

You must have another problem. There are no known issues with building on 7.0

In any case, the old behavior (of fileutils) was a bug. Is the correct solution (in the next build) to skip operations on links, as in the patch I sent? Or do you have another solution?

I have already changed the installation script to skip over soft links. I had to replace that portion with a Perl script. test -l does not work everywhere. The only way to reliably detect soft links is in a Perl script.
