The command below appears to work for me:   Some of the following
links are directories while others are "plain" files.  Options of
-xtype or -type may be of some additional use.

[289] -=> find ~ -type l -follow -print
find: /home/rusty/Html/Tcl: No such file or directory
find: /home/rusty/Html/Java: No such file or directory
find: /home/rusty/Hardware/NewMicros/SMALLC/bar: No such file or directory
find: /home/rusty/Hardware/NewMicros/baz: No such file or directory
find: /home/rusty/Mail.old/arcie: No such file or directory
