re Windows: pipes, yes, hard links, no (and no sane symlinks either) - 
also of course no (sane) shell - is this going to be a script or a C 
program?

Maybe use an option which you would disable on Windows to copy the files 
instead of hardlinking them. Yes it would take lots more time and space, 
but copying raw files would surely still be a lot faster than loading 
the dump.

cheers
