"mingw-w64 isn't the place to introduce new API implementations."
symlink, realpath, readlink, lstat, link are all POSIX.1-2001
functions. Why do you say "new API implementations"? They are missing
from MinGW-w64, and, I believe, should be made available.
And I'd also like to see clock_nanosleep support CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
Why won't anyone answer my question about how to submit patches or pull
requests, instead of making spurious, erroneous comments on the merits
of a submission? Wasn't the rigidity of Earnie //Boyd to accept
contributions and suggestions for improvements the reason for the fork
of MinGW-w64 from MinGW years ago?

Use Cygwin if you need symlink support, mingw-w64 isn't the place to

I don't know if those functions are available from Cygwin. But they
are not in MinGW-w64. I don't care how they get to MinGW-w64, it
would be convenient to have them.
And why do you bring up Cygwin? This is the MinGW-w64 mailing list,
right?
