Looking into the code, I found that ensure* methods only verify if the destination path exist and not if the path is of the right * type. IMHO an error should be thrown if path is of the wrong type. Perhaps fs.stat instead of fs.access should suffice...

Yep, ensureFile has checks in place, but it looks like Link/Symlink don't. Milestoning for v10 since this would be a breaking change, technically.
