NTFS version 5.0 and up has all the needed APIs for
creating hard links and symlinks (junctions), so it
should be possible to add support for both hard links
and symlinks to the posixmodule.

Here are a few references:

http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html
(see list of links at the end of the page)

http://www.codeproject.com/w2k/junctionpoints.asp
(junction points only, but includes analysis and source
code)

Note: NTFS 5.0 is supported in Win 2k, XP, 2003 and later.
