This bug is fixed in the development sources for delete. The new
behavior is as follows (run in verbose mode to show that the correct
thing happens):
pit-manager% ls -l .#core core
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jik 0 Feb 18 18:15 .#core
lrwxr-xr-x 1 jik 13 Feb 18 18:14 core@ -> /usr/tmp/core
pit-manager% expunge -v core
expunge: /usr/tmp/core (pointed to by core): No such file or directory
expunge: core (0k) expunged (0k total)
So, a warning is printed for the symlink, but the deleted file is
found and deleted.
