To stop fixincludes from looping over "recursive symlinks", replace this:

	if $LINKS; then
	  files=`ls -LR | sed -n s/:$//p`
	else
	  files=`find . -type d -print | sed '/^.$/d'`
	fi

with this:

	files=`	find . -type d -print | sed '/^.$/d'
		$LINKS && find . -type l -exec test -d '{}' \; -print`

It will still make the symlinks into directories and not symlinks, but
at least it won't loop.  If I remember correctly, several versions of
fixincludes have been posted that make gcc-include into a more accurate
mirror of /usr/include, but none have made it into gcc so far.
