coreutils/tests/cp/link-no-deref
Jim Meyering 09024704ab Test for this:
Make `cp --link --no-dereference' work also on systems where the
  link system call cannot create a hard link to a symbolic link.
  * src/copy.c (copy_internal) [LINK_FOLLOWS_SYMLINKS]: Don't use
  the link syscall on a symlink when it would do the wrong thing.
  Based on the patch by Aurelien Jarno: <http://bugs.debian.org/329451>
