Github user bodewig commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/ant/pull/49 Thanks @jaikiran, I've added a buch of inline comments. Overall I'm in favor of this change and if you want to spend the time on fixing the bugzilla issue in a Java5 friendly way for 1.9.x that would certainly be good - bit not something I'd see as an requirement. The `SymlinkTest` still ensures tests are skipped on platforms that are not Unix (see the `assume` in `setup`). I'm not sure if we can figure out whether Java supports symlinks on the platform easily but it would certainly be good to test things on non-Unix platforms if we claim the task should work.
