I have the general issue that the semantics of the Windows symlink
implementation are ill-defined. Specifically for the patch, I think
precise documentation of the implemented behavior is is missing (unless
it behaves like Unix symlink to the tiniest detail, which I doubt).
Without an exact specification of what it should do it is difficult
to tell whether it does that correctly.
