ls behaves stragely with "-L -l -d" options

[paul]

If I create a directory witha  file in it, and a link to the directory:

kamandi:/tmp/ls_test$ mkdir dir
kamandi:/tmp/ls_test$ touch dir/file
kamandi:/tmp/ls_test$ ln -s ./dir link

ls -L -l -d on the link gives me the file information for the directory,
but the name of the link. This seems like a bug to me.

kamandi:/tmp/ls_test$ ls -L -l -d link
drwxr-x---  2 socolow eng 4096 Aug  7 14:55 link

I observed this with the ls in coreutils 5.2.1.

Thanks,
