Hm, how portable is symlink-reading? If we can actually do that
without big headaches, then +1.
I wondered that, specifically about Windows junction points, but we seem
to have support for it already in dirmod.c::pgreadlink(). Surely there's
no other currently supported platform where it would even be a question?
