Nevermind, strike "seems to work"; it doesn't work without the \?? prefix. I stupidly assumed the DeviceIoControl call would validate the substitute name. Of course it doesn't; it happily creates a broken junction. Opening the junction with CreateFile fails with either ERROR_INVALID_REPARSE_DATA or ERROR_CANT_RESOLVE_FILENAME. Sorry.
