Follow-up Comment #5, bug #52558 (project findutils):

@worley, nevertheless in some cases the results can be different: for example,
if 'b' is directory that contains another symlinks "x" and "y" that point to
some files, the result with -follow could be:

./b -- a
./b/x -- x1
./b/y -- y1

It should be so because there always exists hidden action  "process the
directory content", and when a symlink is dereferenced to a directory, this
action should be applied.
