I think this aligns better with how redo works. Otherwise, if a.do creates a as a symlink, then changes to the symlink's *target* will change a's stat/stamp information without re-running a.do, which looks to redo like you modified a by hand, which causes it to stop running a.do altogether. With this change, modifications to a's target are okay, but they don't trigger any redo dependency changes. If you want that, then a.do should redo-ifchange on its symlink target explicitly.
