Yes, if the 2 for-loop's inside check_updates() is rewritten into 1
for-loop, then you could end up with such a conflict. Should I add a
comment about this inside check_updates()?

Already done in v3 (this version), since the functions
schedule_dir_for_removal() and remove_scheduled_dirs() is now
implemented in the symlinks.c file, where I have made the following:
static struct removal_def {
char path[PATH_MAX];
int len;
} removal;

Ok, I can do a rebase of this patch (4/9) and resend the patches.
