In any event "unreadable files" is a problem all over the place if I use 
Cygwin's /usr/bin/ln to create links. That's why I was forced to write a 
wrapper. Even if 'JUNCTION' is false/misleading as to the root cause, plenty of 
'DOS' programs, like the AWS CLI and Golang have major problems with the 
default behavior.
For a "compatibility" environment to spawn a slew of unusable filesystem 
artifacts is a MAJOR bug, IMO.
