[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62847] addpath fails to process symlinks on mapped network drives

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #41, bug #62847 (project octave):

> ... it seemed to me that it is only reasonable to have a single name for any
directory in the load path and that should be the actual name of the
directory, not the name of a symbolic link.

AFAIU a drive mapping (a Windows idiosyncrasy, admittedly) is different than a
symbolic link; it's more like a mount. Yet I can understand that it can be
perceived as some symbolic link as well.
