Comment (by bmundim):

 Replying to [comment:14 rhaas]:
 > If you want to check if a file is a symbolic link (instead of checking
 that it is not multiply hard-linked) you can also use os.path.islink. See
 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11068419/check-if-file-is-symlink-in-
 python and https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.path.html#os.path.islink

 and how would I know if the python runtime supports symlinks?

 https://bugs.python.org/issue13143

 in any case, as long as it works I am happy.
