The problem described in PR 6009 occurs all over the pkg_* source, not 
only in that single place. The suggested fix is correct, although I think 
that there are more places that suffer with this lossage. The suggested 
islinktodir() function seems a bit too restrictive regarding directory 
permissions to me; a simple stat() instead of lstat() in the right(!) 
places should be sufficient.
