It took enough sweat and tears to have an implementation with junction
points done correctly on Windows and we know that it works, so I am
not sure that we need an actual wrapper for readlink() and such for
the backend code to replace junction points.  The issue with Windows
is that perl's symlink() is not directly available on Windows.
