Same problem for me against AFS file system beyond 5 levels in the directory tree.
Fell back to 3.2.0-1 (Cygwin) to resolve.  None of the 3.3 versions worked (up to 3.3.2-1)

Subject: vboxsharedfs - Too many levels of symbolic links

Check twice before you click! This email originated from outside PNNL.


vboxsharedfs file systems no longer work. Any attempt to access will result in "too many levels of symbolic links".

This only affects the VirtualBox shared folder, the Samba share works just fine.

Last time I updated (before today) was sometime before the 10th of September.

MSYS2 has the same problem, but no one seems to have reported it to
