Yes, it's definitely a file system bug, and I don't see any good way for 
Emacs to work around it.

You might try doing your CIFS mount with the mfsymlinks option. See:

https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/cifs/usage.html

https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/UNIX_Extensions#Minshall.2BFrench_symlinks

If you're already using mfsymlinks it might be a good time to file a bug 
report with your file system supplier.
