[issue14773] fwalk breaks on dangling symlinks

[Hynek Schlawack]

Hynek Schlawack <hs at ox.cx> added the comment:

So I've changed the patch to ignore everything missing except for dangling links (which throw unfortunately the same exception).

Just to stress it once more: a fwalk that _ignores_ dangling symlinks is worthless for rmtree. And wasn't rmtree the initial reason to implement fwalk in the first place? ;)
