Just for a bit of clarification...we're looking at a directory structure like this 

./dir1
   bin --> bin3/
   bin1/
   bin2/
   bin3/
./dir2
   bin --> bin2/
   bin1/
   bin2/
./dir3
   subdir1
     bin --> bin2/
(etc, so on)
./project1current --> /some/other/path/than/this
./www
./perl

I want it to recurse into *only* these paths: 

./dir1/bin3
./dir2/bin2
./dir3/subdir1/bin2/
(etc so on in that pattern) /some/other/path/than/this I can figure it out to the point where it will only recurse into normal directories once it has checked to see if there are any symlinks...however, I can't figure out how to get it to parse directories and symlinks.
