# 3) System Test
#
# Given a list of directories, report any bogus symbolic links contained
# anywhere in those subtrees. A bogus symbolic link is one that cannot
# be resolved because it points to a nonexistent or otherwise
# unresolvable file. Do *not* use an external find executable.
# Directories may be very very deep. Print a warning immediately if the
# system you're running on doesn't support symbolic links.
# This implementation:
# - takes one optional argument, using the current directory as default
# - uses chdir to increase performance
# - sorts the names per directory
# - prints output lines of the form "path1 -> path2" as it goes
# - prints error messages about directories it can't list or chdir into
