If you set a symlink on a Linux (ext2, ext3, ext4, reiser, etc.)
filesystem, Windows won't see it at all because it cannot read those
filesystems. I was the one who mentioned symlinks, I mentioned them in
the context of double-boot, not of Cygwin, and I explicitly mentioned
ext2, ext3, ext4 and reiser filesystems. So who's distorting whose words?
