Ahh awesome, we've definitely been hitting that as well and ended up
peppering chown/chmods a bit everywhere.

I can confirm that's still the case:

```
$ rsync --delete --stats -a
sig-atomic at artifacts.ci.centos.org::sig-atomic/fahc/rdgo/ rdgo/
$ file rdgo/build
rdgo/build: symbolic link to `build-0'
```

And yet:

```
$ curl -I http://artifacts.ci.centos.org/sig-atomic/fahc/rdgo/build/
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2018 13:51:16 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS) PHP/5.4.16
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
```

Compare with:

```
$ curl -I http://artifacts.ci.centos.org/sig-atomic/centos-continuous/rdgo/build/
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2018 13:51:08 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS) PHP/5.4.16
Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1
```

which is also a symlink, but somehow that one works.
