Interesting to compare with behaviour of gnu cvs client.
Regular cvs behaviour (generally but upon update in particular) is to ignore symlinks.
See function special_file_mismatch in update.c (and function islink in filesubr.c) in cvs source code.

Probably the same should be done by jenkins CVS Plugin.
Otherwise would need to add intelligence on finding symlink loops.
