Sorry, but I don't think I will be spending the time to patch ln to check whether it is linking to a DOS path. Symlinks are supposed to be textual, with no regards to what it is pointing to, and I have already added enough cygwin-specific stuff for special casing .exe when doing symlinks. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
