Hello,

Unfortunately, we have .lnk files in our source control so I cannot
avoid the following problem. When I try to checkout a symbolic link
file, something happens to it and cvs is unable to stat it to set
necessary file information. Its almost like cygwin changed the name of
the file from under CVSs' feet. Can anyone help?

U thirdparty/OPENSSL-0.9.7-BETA3/Makefile.lnk
cvs checkout: cannot stat Makefile.lnk: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: cannot set time on Makefile.lnk: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: cannot stat Makefile.lnk: No such file or directory

Thanks,
Akshay Dua
