Original submission:

in fish, when copying a large tree of files over from a remote 
host, if a file is a hardlink, fish hangs when coming across this 
file, nothing more gets copied. seems like fish does not see that 
the file is a hardlink and does not follow it, just bails out 
without warning and hangs, the rest of the files which were to be 
copied never get through.

still valid with GNU Midnight Commander 4.6.2-pre1 on Mandriva 
Linux 2008.1/x86_32

Changing milestone to 4.6.2.. at least this error is unreproducible with the mc which is currently in mc-4.6 branch, so I guess this issue is fixed (because of our restructurments of the fish.c code).
