Symlinked packages used to work on Windows until recently, but a few days ago 
Microsoft published a few security patches and things stopped working. On my 
local machine I uninstalled all Visual C++ Runtime library patches (they were 
installed automatically on May 5th) and symlinks started working on my machine, 
again. On my friend's computer symlinked packages suddenly stopped working 
today, but he doesn't seem to have the Visual C++ Runtime libs, so we don't 
know how to work around this issue on his computer. Could someone please fix 
support for symlinked packages? It's an essential feature during development.
