There are some questions we should answer before trying to make
more full implementation of symlinks in DJGPP:

	one may need to invoke non-DJGPP application from DJGPP one. 
	As results symlinks will work in one but not in another one 
        (example of non-DJGPP application is command.com)

       If we are going to support only part of functionality we have for
       example in Linux, then something will still stay broken and we'll still
       may have problems when running things that commes from Unix.
