Well as discussed previously I'm not fond of this feature at all:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2009-03/threads.html#00287
TBH, the number of hardlinks has it's own column that one can quickly scan.
The only argument I've seen for changing the color is "it would help".
So I'd be happy to turn off this completely, or at least not enable it by 
default.

cheers,
Pádraig.
