I had one of my guys test the work this morning. The creation of
symlinks works fine. Did you implement a utility that can convert an
existing cygwin symlink to native form?

This can easily be accomplished by a script, utilizing readlink(1) and
ln(1).

Well, if the he wants to convert to a *native* link, then he'd use winln(1) from cygutils rather than ln(1). But the larger point remains: this conversion can be done from a script.
