bug: symbolic links not recognized as such

Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I couldn't figure out how to enter
a bug report in the issue tracker so here goes:

Subclipse doesn't properly handle symbolic links. I have a project with
some symbolic links under version control. Subversion itself handles
this just fine but subclipse keeps wanting to commit files it finds
through the symlink even though they are already versioned under another
directory. In case that's not clear, here's an example:

trunk/Project/foo/blahblah.txt
trunk/Project/bar/foo-inst -> ../foo

that is, foo-inst is a symlink which points to foo. If I checkout
Project and run svn status on the working copy it says everything is
up-to-date, but if I right-click on Project in eclipse and select Team |
Commit... it says Project/bar/foo-inst/blahblah.txt is an unversioned
resource and wants to add it to the repository.
