Replying to myself with a little more data:
If I disconnect from the network so our NFS mounts are unavailable,
the package builds quickly and normally. So I'd say packagemaker _is_
traversing the symlinks, but obviously for no good purpose, as when
the other side of the links are not available, it does not warn or
error.

Are there known issues with the command-line packagemaker (3.0.3)

When I try to build a package that installs some symlinks that point
to places out on our organization's NFS mounts, sits forever at the
Preverifying step:

Eventually I grow impatient and control-C it.
If I clear out the symlinks in the packageroot and then build, it
builds fine, but completely misses the point. Is packagemaker
traversing the symlinks in the packageroot? I don't see a --no-
follow type option in packagemaker's command-line options.
