directory tree sometimes detects symbolic links, sometimes not

Description

When opening FP GUI, the left-hand directory tree exhibits inconsistent display of symbolic links.

Example: A fonts directory under $HOME has multiple symbolic directory links under it. An expansion arrow should show for the top-level fonts directory, but often does not. The directory does not have any "real" directories under it - only symbolic ones. It's unclear, as of now, what conditions cause it to work and what conditions cause it to fail. Probably something to do with the wxPython libs?

a work-around is to add a "dummy" sub-directory that gets the widget to recurse through the top-level directory

I haven't looked at this but it's def. a wxPython thing. Perhaps newer versions of the genericDirCtrl will solve the problem. It's certainly out of our direct control.
