It doesn't look like the mklink command is available to the XP based systems.
I've found two possible substitute command, ln and junction, available at:
ln .. http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/ln/ln.html#introduction
junction .. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/sysinternals/bb896768
Could either of these be used as a fix to enable XP install win-builds?
