I fiddled about with symlinks a while ago, re-creating them longhand from
outside Cygwin in an effort to by-pass Norton's [quite unjustified]
objections to some of them. If you look at
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-05/msg00069.html you will see my groaning
account of how this was achieved. Its follow-up
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-05/msg00091.html describes how to make them
quickly and intelligently.
