Symbolic links are not supported directly by Subversion. The NTFS file system does allow for symbolic links, but until Windows Vista, there was no command that could produce symbolic links.
The "mklink" command works in Windows 7 and Windows Vista. You need System admin rights in order to use this command, so if developers are not admins on their machines, or if they aren't using WIndows 7 or Vista, they cannot use the mklink command. I don't know how Subversion handles mklinks and whether it treats them the same way as symlinks. For years, I've found it best to avoid symlinks in the repository. Instead, I create them at build time.
