Nope.
I just now did it again in nautilus/trusty (1:3.10.1-0ubuntu9.4). Even after
nautilus --quit and rm -rf ~/.config/nautilus in case it was my old config.
Steps to reproduce:
1) create your crash test dummies:
$mkdir /tmp/test_real ; mkdir /tmp/test_real/foo ; mkdir /tmp/test_link ; ln
-sT
The difference with a text file is that it shows with a proper icon
rather than the same folder icon, and nautilus specifically asks to
overwrite rather than merge. But on symlinks nautilus asks Merge
folder? and then actually overwrites.

. I think the edited Bug Description will make it clear to all the scope

Which is the trouble with this bug: it's actually several otherwise very minor
shortcomings that add up to a nasty result.
Apples-to-apples check did fix one problem, but it's circumvented via another.
The second big deal, of course, is that usually symlinks are treated as their
targets, but
Andrei Drynov, this is not reproducible in Trusty.
The item could not be renamed.
The name “test” is already used in this location. Please use a different name.

Ran into this one too, in a different way.
What makes it even worse: if you merge directories, it's MUCH more likely than
usual that at least one of them contains symlinks into another. And then moved
symlinks overwrite their own destinations. With files you at least retain
something useful...
