No, you would need them all.  The sym-links are processed later.
A ``find(1)'' is done on each sym link after the non-following
find on ".".

We could also *remove* the ``files'' entry.  That would run the
fix on every file found to have the ``select'' expression and *not*
the ``bypass'' expression:

  /*
   * Fix BSD machine/ansi.h to use __builtin_va_list to define
_BSD_VA_LIST_.
   */
  fix = {
    hackname = machine_ansi_h_va_list;
    select   = "define[ \t]+_BSD_VA_LIST_[ \t]";
    bypass   = '__builtin_va_list';

    c_fix     = format;
    c_fix_arg = "%1__builtin_va_list";
    c_fix_arg = "(define[ \t]+_BSD_VA_LIST_[ \t]+).*";

    test_text = " # define _BSD_VA_LIST_\tchar**";
  };
