-       DWORD           attr;
-       HANDLE          h;

Why the patch moves the definitions for "attr" and "h"?


+       Assert(path != NULL && buf != NULL);

I don't think it's required.  Even if we want to imitate readlink,
they should (maybe) return EFALUT in that case.


+       buf[r] = '\0';

readlink is defined as not appending a terminator.  In the first place
the "buf[r] = '\0'" is overrunning the given buffer.


-       return 0 <= readlink(name, &c, 1);
+       return 0 <= readlink(name, linkpath, sizeof(linkpath));

According to the discussion, we don't want to modify zic.c at
all. (Maybe forgot to remove?)
