Actually you can do the same thing with Windows "hardlinks".  These are 
symbolic links, not shortcuts, created by the fsutil command:
c:> cd "My Documents\Pubs\pdfs"
c:> fsutil hardlink create "..\VM 5.4\54 License Info Doc.pdf" 
c2461069.pdf

Shortcuts won't work unless the application is specifically coded to 
understand .lnk files (gag).  I wish "Create shortcut" would create 
hardlinks instead.  "Is there an app for that?"
