I believe the patch was the one which introduced this behavior with the lines:
+        if( _overwrite && S_ISLNK( buff_orig.st_mode ) )
+          remove( _dest_orig.data() );
        
and
+        if (_overwrite && S_ISLNK(buff_dest.st_mode))
+        {
+            kdDebug(7101) << "copy(): LINK DESTINATION" << endl;
+            remove( _dest.data() );
+        }

If your second patch fixes the original bug, I'd say use that one, as the 
current behavior can be considered as broken (compared to other tools).
