Does cygwin have any ability to find/identify NTFS junction points?
This would be useful so that you don't inadvertently mistreat them thinking
they are regular files or directories.

Also, is there any native cygwin utilities with functionality similar to
junction.exe allowing you to make or delete junction points? (I know that
cygwin doesn't like them too much philosophically and they seem to be on
their way out anyway but...)
