setup/symlinks/gcc/chown question

Hi All...
I just installed gcc/mingw with setup.
If I do
cd /lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/3.4.4
chown -R administrators.none *
it breaks the symlinks in the directory. If I do
chown administrators.none *
from a clean install, the symlinks are fine. If I recreate the symlinks by
hand, then both forms of the chown command work fine. That is chown -R
breaks the symlinks created during the install. If I reinstall gcc/mingw, I
can repeat the process. A cygcheck output is attached.
This comes from a script that I run after running setup to fix up my mounts
and permissions. Is there a better way to do this fixup? Two copies of the
script are attached; the first with the chown -R that now breaks the
symlinks and a temporary one that uses find to to avoid the chown -R, but
the second is really slow.
Thanks,
...Karl
