IMHO this is expected, as ntfs-3g does not known whether
D: is not the current partition (the one which hosts the
symlink), and it can find the path on the current partition.

I would also expect this if the path cannot be found
in the current partition. Then a relay is expected in
./NTFS-3G/D: in order to tell which file system is
being called D:

Yes, there were significant changes in the processing
or reparse points in order to support system compressed
files.
