Hard links were always supported by NTFS, Win32 just didn't have a real
interface for creating them (they were needed for the POSIX subsystem).
You can use the link() function in ActivePerl 522 to create hard links on
an NTFS partition (provided you have backup operator privileges; there is
no API to create hard links with Win32, but you can restore them from a
backup :-).
