Symlinks in collection doesn't work as expected

[Noccy]

Symlinks in a folder doesn't load properly into the collection. Tested on both NTFS and ext3

To reproduce, assuming "/media/music" is the drive with the music:

1. create /media/music/_collection
2. symlink individual albums into /media/music/_collection from /media/music/...
3. add /media/music/_collection as the only entry in the collection manager

(Exaile 0.2.99.3, Ubuntu 9.04)

fixed in r2385

At the moment, this breaks Python 2.5 support as followlinks=True is introduced in 2.6.
The attached patch works around it for now, albeit not yet implementing followlinks for Python 2.5.

Applied with r2392.
