Loopy simlinks

[twiggler]

Suppose I acquire the following paths:

mkdir -p dir1/dir2/dir3
ln -s dir1/dir2/dir3 dir1/sym_dir_lnk

I get:

The director is captured and present in the archive.

Expected

An info messages at most. A Failure makes little sense to me, since the contents are captured, and there is no loop.

If the direction of the symlink was reversed, pointing from dir3 to dir1 then the warning makes more sense to me.
