Speaking of open(), what is the status of symbolic links in VSTa? The
file system seems to be required to give an ESYMLINK error if an
attempt is made to open a symlink without the ACC_SYMLINK bit. DOS
does this for files with the hidden flag set, but doesn't seem to
have a way of creating the links. The GNU file utils don't seem to
believe that symlinks can be created at all, and always copy the file
instead.
