[issue6547] shutil.copytree fails on dangling symlinks

So, here's what I am planing to do after a little thought:

When a dangling symlink occurs and symlinks=false, copytree() will just emit a warning, unless the onerror option (new option) is set to a callable. In that case it will receive the src/dst values, and it will be up to the developer to decide what to do.
