Test 1.  Moving one large directory.  There is no "count" bar at all.
Obviously a bug.

Test 2.  Moving three large directories.  The "count" bar stays at 0.
Obviously another bug.

Test 3.  Moving three large files.  Yes, that's where your patch helps.

Test 4.  Moving 9 symlinks and 3 large files.  The count ends at 25%.
Obviously one more bug.

Test 5.  Copying 9 symlinks and 3 large files.  The count ends at 25%.
The last bug is in the copy routine.

Your patch eliminates counting symlinks, and the copy routine doesn't
count them either.  Not good.  I believe that your patch does something
wrong when symlinks are involved, but I cannot say it for sure before
copying is fixed.

With so many bugs around, I think it's better to fix the most basic of
them rather than compensate for bugs and introduce new ones.  I'll try to
clean up what I can.
