Invalid symbolic links on the module source path

Emacs creates dangling symbolic links while source files are edited,
as a form of lock file. These have names of the form ".#Main.java"
(for a source file called Main.java). Should javac skip reading these
non-source files, based on their name?
Presently, javac attempts to open these files and reports an error,
terminating the compilation.
(I wonder if there is a reasonably straightforward way to work around
this using a JavaFileManager.)
