Is this really a Win95/98/ME vs NT distinction or a FAT32 vs NTFS distinction?
In which case does an NT machine that happens to be using a FAT32 file system
have the same problem?

Is there a reason to make this a compile-time decision? Can't it just try to
make a junction and if it fails then use the Cygwin symlink?
